what have you done to your truck today

[makeitfit]

Today I have been mainly working but have sprayed my pimped out roof spoiler BLACK mmmmmmmmmm

 

[lacroupade]

New roof lights, lower so less vulnerable and less glare and fitted front spot lights (Hella Rallye 2000s). Also fitted sram Night Breaker bulbs to headlights.

Those NBs any good then Terra?

Those NBs any good then Terra?

Night Breakers? Yes very, have got em in my van too, a brighter and whiter light, you don't really notice till the first time you drive properly at night, around town and lit roads you don't realise but out in the ticks they are definitely an improvement.Still only 55/60w but +90% more light as hey are more efficient. So no worries about melting wiring or bulb holders as the lights actually waste less power as heat and more goes out as light.

Oh and I've got stocks of em now in H4 - need to get some H1, H3 and H7s in too. £10 a pair delivered for H4s which is cheaper than the cheapest on ebay.


I sold some H4 24v versions to one f my customers to get their HGVs through the new stricter MOT test for wagons that is testing light output as well as pattern, the older trucks were failing on standard bulbs, so they do really work.

I fitted Halfords Extreme Brilliance Xenon Bulbs to mine last year same figures 90% brighter.

Makes so much difference over pathetic standard Mav lights.


Plus they have a blue tint so I can look like a right chav ;O)

Today I got it a bit muddy!

My local motor club (Stroud and District Motor Club) had there annual Ebworth Classic Trial today in Ebworth woods.
Went to watch with my 3 yr old son for a couple of hours.
Muddy tracks in the woods, what more could you want. Good motorsport and a chance to use the 4WD for what its designed for.:thumbs
Got to give the T2 a good wash now!
