Cheers Mash, I'm in North Devon, just on the edge of Exmoor.
I've lurked on the forum for a while and have learnt loads already. Reading others posts has what's inspired me to just do it! |

That's a real shame. I sympathise with all those involved.

| Just had this happen to me. The advice on here was superb! I checked the bulbs and fuses, replaced the switch, bridged the dim/dip relay but in the end it turned out to be a burnt relay. |

| I bought myself a cheap Draper. I thought it was crap at first but turns out my skill level was the problem. Bit of practice makes perfect! |
