Side Lights

[nigelt]

Hi Guys,

 

Are front sidelights a requirement, as I can't seem to think where to put them on the 2B?

 

can you get away with just dipped beam?

 

Thanks

Front side lights are a requirement, usually on a 2B they are fitted into the headlight unit. You will need units with a provision for the side light and a fixing to keep the bulb in place. Typical fixings that can be used are from old mini's MG's etc..

As per the previous post - If you're using the standard sealed-beam units that come with the kit, there should be a clear section near the connector pins, where your side light shines through. You can buy a sub-loom with side light provision for about £8, or the Robin Hood way was to wire in the bulb and just leave it dangling in roughly the right place.

Ahaa... I will have a look at the sealed units tonight... hadn't spotted that blank bit at the back of the unit...

 

Thanks guys
