Can't believe the difference!

Just had the headlamp relay conversion carried out on my 240Z and the difference is unbelievable. I had this done to take the load off the switch but had read that this also resulted in more power to the lights but didn't realise how much. I have owned the car for 6 years and have always complained about the headlights even when fitted with the Ring Ultra Xenon bulbs, not any more! If anyone hasn't done the conversion yet, DO IT.

Might be worth trying this on my car. The full high beam is fine but the dipped beam is so bad that its actually scary and I have to use the full beam most of the time if I'm in an area with no streetlights.




Did you make up a relay or did you buy one like this?:

I agree entirely - the conversion made a huge difference to our visibility!
