Hi Grenadier

Yes I would like to get the CP & wheels done

Also think I need to put some grip tape on the side bars after nearly coming a cropper when it was frosty one morning Rolling with laughter My confidence has been writing cheques that my abilities can't cash for years.

I think I’m going to remove those huge lights and get some laser style smaller items on there Cool
I don’t think a light bar would look , well , “right”

Also need to figure out where to route the wiring through to get the external sensor for this thermometer into the wing cavity if I can

Hi Trevor

I take it you mean the headlights, not the rack mounted spotlights? (as they aren’t connected and probably coming off soon)

The headlights have been fine. I bought from LRI solutions (I think it was)

They were a doddle to fit , took around an hour in total as I replaced the rotten rings too

I haven’t had any condensation issues , and they are loads brighter than the originals

Lots of disputes about the drawbacks of these are they are probably not stamped correctly to pass an mot, but a good investment if I am honest. Thumbs Up
