Aux lights - Has everyone seen this?

Looks interesting especially with regard to all the running auxiliary light debates.

Seen it, bought it, pleased with it! Beware Import duty, which brought the total cost up to about £150 - AAAARGH! Looks good, though, & does exactly what it says on the box. I fitted mine to an Adventure, which requires a bit of cutting & bodging, as it fits onto the spacers between the screen and the panel. There's a picture of it fitted somewhere on this site, but I've forgotten where I posted it.....

Cheaper aux lamp

Plugs straight into your 12v socket

easy wiring?

Hello MikeO

Was it easy to wire up?
I only ask, because I'm brain dead in that department.
Cheers

Bob,

I didn't buy the PIAA lights (too bloody expensive!). The lights in the pic are Hella Optilux, also bought from the 'States, but for $38:95 the pair. They give a good spread of light & have die-cast bodies & glass lenses. Beware postage & import duty, though!!

I bought mine from a place called Auto Barn (I think, it was a while ago).

The lamps came with full instructions, wiring, brackets, relay,fuse etc. It took me about an hour to do a half decent job of fitting them - and they're still working!

One thing though.... Once you've sorted out your main beam lighting, it concentrates your mind on how poor the dipped beam is. I've tried fitting a 100w bulb, but they last about 2 weeks - anyone got any ideas?
