[johno]

just a quick question

[Simon]

Brand new can be had for about Ԛ£300.

There are a couple of us on here making/made our own.

[johno]

nice to see how we could make are own ?

[Simon]

Basically, there's a cross shaped insert in the main beam lamp, and the silver reflector in the dipped beam thatr you can see when you look into the light is painted black.

If you do a search in the tech section for smoked hellas, you should find the original thread.

I think its more like gun metal grey not black.
