YOU CAN ALSO GET HELLA SEALED BEAM 60/55W 12V
THESE ARE great
BUT BLOW A BULB AND IT CANNOT BE REPLACED.

the fancy ones on ebay etc,, look OK but are rubbish according to My Son....

Can't say how well it works yet, but I've now got all the parts to copy what Joel has done on his.

If you go to his thread on pages 9 and 12 you'll see what he's done
