Some of toadys action.
These Hella's are a fooking ballache t do.
They are properly sealed units from factory unlike the Hella main beams.
It takes double the heat and time to get these apart.
I have tried these before and ruined 3 main beams by forcing the lense to come off
, but I finally got it.
Mick, if you're reading this, don't send those to me, I can't guarantee I won't crack a lense or 2.
Anyway, results are below.


Regards to wiring these into the chromie, are the adaptors still available, i remeber Rob having bought a set for his Cabbie, or should I just splice them into the loom.
I have worked out all 3 wires, so not a problem.

Keeping th origional Lights Dan, but tbh, the light coming of these isn't very good at night.
These are early Bullseyes, so should look OK with HID's in them.
Mix and match will be OK for the time being, I will be getting Hella mains to.
Dave, the wiring doesn't look to difficult, there is 1 earth and 2 lives, one for the side lights and the other for high.

How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.
