Hey Tim,
The headlight wiring kit arrived promptly, and have installed it in my Defender.
Top piece of kit, and very good instructions. I can now see the road in front of me at night :D. Still waiting on the HID lights coming from China to install the spotties, but they should be here this week.
Thanks again,
Ken
AGAIN!, Tim has promptly got me out of trouble, I had forgotten to order a Def upgrade kit, after a phone call I received the kit next day, vehicle out the door 1.5 hours later, fitted with 100/90 globes and a very happy customer. Good stuff Tim:):)
Easy to fit and very necessary to all you Defender and County owners. Just do it!

Installed one of those Traxide kits into my Defender. Excellent piece of work and good instructions.
The improvement in the light output was noticeable at the first test run.
Hopefully now my headlight switch will last a bit longer.
Sorry forgot to mention before, this time I did some voltage measurements. Vehicle was a 2000 Td5 Defender.
At the headlamp plug, 10.2V standard, but with Tims Traxide upgrade, 12.2V.
Engine not running, at low beam socket.
Massive improvement in light output, even before I fitted the 100/90 globes. :twisted:

Tim, Query for you, looking at doing the headlight upgrade kit with the extra relay etc for driving lights. Can the kit be installed and wired up with a loop until I get the driving lights, or would I just install part of the kit, and change the wiring layout when I get the driving lights?
Hi Phoenix, you can set up which ever way suits you at the time you do the headlight upgrade.
The driving light wiring upgrade is an extension of the headlight kit and can be done at anytime.
Cheers, Tim.
Ok not sure as it has been a while, but why not fit a hid headlight replacement as they draw the power direct from the battery and the current (pun intended:D) wiring is just there to provide the switching for the hid kit not to provide power for the lights.
Mostly because HID bulbs cannot be used legally in cars that did not come fitted with them unless you perform some mods to your car to make it ADR compliant.Quote:

I just got some cheap foggies to put on it.
Also how can I get the switch on the dash to work, what goes behind the button?
