Finally got my Cibie HCR's installed today. The stock retainers needed a little clearancing for the "city light". I haven't ran them at night yet, but I can already tell they are big improvement over the cheap ebay H4s I had. They have a nice horizontal cutoff and a much more even beam. They use an H4 bulb.

Clean the grounds and they should brighten up. 6volts hate any corrosion.

I couldn't imagine trying to drive at night with 6 volts... :shock: I know those systems were designed for it, but still...

Very dim. I ordered the led tail lights and they should be in Monday. You can barely see the brake lights too.

I think I found another potential problem...

Fixed it, but haven't got to run it yet because it was so late when I got done...
