GT666 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Just bought a pair of these WIPAC halogens. They come with a little pilot light fitting. Has anyone bothered to fit these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Borris Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 No, I just put a grommet in the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what the bulbs are like that they come with as I've not used them yet, I went for osram night breakers instead.Cheers,Floyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilesdive Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 One of the chaps at Vale of York TR lot got some for his TR6. He has put a sidelight in the "pilot" hole as well as leaving the normal sidelight connected.He reckons it is a good idea, and the car is more visible if it's not quite dark enough to bother turning headlamps on.At the end of the day, your choice (and can you really be bothered?) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
