Hi Could somone tell me if the Tuscan's use 90mm Hella lights.

Also is the lower one the headlight and upper one the full beam light or are they the other way round.

Thanks
Leigh

Hey,

Not sure what bulbs they are but the dipped beam lights are at the top and the full beam are at the bottom.

The technical control claims that my head-lights are at least 3/4-inch too high and thus are blinding the opposite traffic... car failed homologation purely for this little issue :-(

How can I adjust the hight / bring it 1.5cm down ? Are there adjustment screws, or would it be the whole lamp's body to move ???

Thanks for advice guys.

If you have adjustable shock absorbers with adjustable spring perches you may be able to get 3/4" lower ride height by lowering the spring perches just for the test.

Presuming you have 18" spiders, another way would be to get some 16" early Tuscan wheels and put low profile rubber on them, the rolling radius would be 1" less with the same profile tyres on - again just for the test.

Don't know if it's a MK2, but take off main bonnet and remove the panel behind lights, there are adjustable screws on each light unit.
