Sunday job

Got my new spotlights fitted today Very Happy
Just waiting for it to get dark now before going for a drive







Wasn't without problems though, as I accidentally caused this



But, after leaving the car for a while, all is now reset and working fine Thumbs Up

I like those, what lights are they?
Have been looking for a while for something that fits in that gap.

Basically I was able to drill up into the slot in the bumper from the front. Had to drill at a slight angle due to restricted access. I then fitted a rivnut into each hole and bolted the lights in.
Wires were then run back into the battery/ fuse box area, and attached to a relay. Then ran 2 cables from the relay across the back of the engine bay, and entered the cabin via a grommet next to the brake servo, and attached to a new switch next to main light switch

I am curious, do 18w led lights give enough light?
Have you tried them yet?

I went out last night to try them out.
They're not super bright, but I couldn't drive with them on all the time as they would dazzle oncoming traffic.
They certainly give you a wider field of vision with a nice white light. I may look for some brighter ones but I'm reasonably happy with these Thumbs Up
Also, 18w is equivalent to a 70w halogen.
