    Agree, and I only have the 5000, approaching cars would drop early and than flash asking me to drop which than puts us both on low beam for what seems like ages.

    when I had them set to pencil at times depending on the road I was in I used to drop the driving lights first than high beam some time later when the approaching car got closer.....meant I had more light for longer.

    I now have both set to spread, this projects far enough for me.

    He has put up here many times and has thousands of posts here as well.

    I think we are all interested.
    Doubt you'll see it - he signed up and made 5 posts including one here we are discussing the same day then hasn't logged on since. A pity really as some of his other posts re electrics were quite insightful so I am guessing he has experience in these areas, but would like further clarification on what he means.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    I'm after pair of Fyrlyts for our Isuzu Mux. Is R2D2 still the man to go to, and does anyone have contact details if he is. Thanks.

    I brought my three set through him.....although that was quite a few years ago now

    Buggered if I can think of the diesel workshop he was working for.

    Thanks Tombie and W&KO, I've been offered a pair that are no longer being used by a contributor on here, so I'll be taking that up.

    Good outcome...........

    Although I must be the unluckiest owner of FYRLYT’s.....the Lux has another failed lens FYRLYT Driving light review, spotted it the other day and have tried to ignore it. Best I fit an old lens today before the light fills with water. This is the second lens that has separated this way.

    Based on my experience with the sets fitted to the work cars I’m hesitant to fit the new set I have in the garage to the defender for our 2 year lap..... as I don’t really want to be fussing with lenses along the way. The last two failures have been separation of the two part lens which means the inside of the light is immediately exposed to the elements,generally means a blown bulb happens pretty quick.

    Hmm, maybe the separation started awhile ago as it looks like the lens is damaged. Next mission is to get the other half out.

    One good thing is the lenses are super easy to change

    I found a random one in the garage.......

    Have sent an email to FYRLYT with photos...generally they send replacements at no cost.

    I wonder if it’s the Toyota badge.......hang on the driving lights have been the only maintenance issues over the five years.
