Driving lamps are Valeo - you'll find loads on this in the archives. Don't know about the dip units though. Headlamp upgrades are popular - why not try one of those while you're at it?

The last 100 used Bigger lights on the front, i wonder if these would fit in the older Fittings.
As the originals arent the best in the world.
There is also wiring upgrades that can give u brightere lights.
See Steve Heaths book or Modwise's Brigter lights Kit.

TVR Bodyshop, Bristol I think - probably about £1400 inc front end respray. See ad in back of Sprint.

How about using a HID bilb conversion kit. Preserve the Griff looks but get ing bright lights..

Edited to add - I Think the dip lights in are used on BWM's. (5 series)

I looked into HID,the ones you can buy are for "off road use only", something to do with correct fitment(securing amp) and they have to be self leveling also.

Simpo one is correct - TVR bodyshop in Nailsea. Bit more than 1500 with the new grille and the white indicators but it did include a front end respray as well. The work was done in 10 days and the finish is excellent....and I can see where I am going in the dark!!

I was looking around and did not see the bit about off road only.. may have missed it tho, the ones I saw had also got the buld conversion as a direct replacement for the H4.
