Headlight Lighting

Found a little kit that allows you to intall 9003/H4 bulbs into the RX7.


It was cheap, installed in a few minutes and allowed me to see better too!

I'll get a few pics up soon.

I got mine at Canadian Tire

The one I have is made by Bosch.

Not terribly cheep, but allowed me to install brighter headlights, and atleast this way, if one of my lenses gets broken I sill have a bit of light . Unlike a convencional Sealed beam, which will not work without a Vaccume.

Manntis had them on Pamela.

That is how I found out about them.

They look fine in my opininon.

Just like stock, only brighter, and it gives you the abbility to change the bulb type if you see fit.

The Bosch and Hella units are the only ones worth having. The cheap "Diamond cut" and "Autopal" lights just plain suck. You definitely get what you pay for.
