i have just put an S2 front bumper on my 87 Lux and am thinking of rehashing the way the lights work. I assume that the driving lamp (which i think is a high beam lamp) only comes on when high beam is on, and the side light (in the driving lamp reflector) comes on with the side light in the flip-up headlights??
Anyway, i want to wire it so that the side light (in the driving lamp reflector) has a totally independant switch and also, if possible, to fit a bulb in the driving lamp, which is a dipped beam type and also to wire it independantly with its own switch. This will avoid the flip-up lights raising in most normal circumstances (i.e. driving with side lights and dipped beam). But, are dipped-beam type bulbs available for the driving lamp? , preferably LED? If they're not, could the fog lamp be used or fitted with an alternative bulb? Ideally, i would also like a brighter Side lamp bulb, maybe LED...any ideas?
I suppose if there were bulbs available for the driving lamp which had dip/main filaments, that would be even better.
Any hints/tips on doing all this much appreciated.....Adrian
