bulb holder in main beam light
Discussion
While poking around today i noticed that my main beam lights have side light bulb holders, a quick look behind reveals a connection point for said holder
having the lower lamps lit while driving with lights on could look pretty cool, has anyone done this? if so where did you get the plug for the side light connection? i doubt this would be to hard to find as the lamps are Hella
just a thought

does it have the side light holder in? If so just use some spade's surely to connect it? If not go to a breakers where you can walk around and pull some side lights off, many use the twist and pull connector. Don't remember mine having a sidelight into the main bulb housing though?? But 00-03 many changes...Some of the Hella units came with some without side light holes, in the past i have had to drill and file holes in the light unit to take the side light bulb holders.
Never had to buy a plug but looks common try the ford part if getting the holder from them,
Hella stockist should be able to provide the bulb,holder and plug i imagine.
Also try "Vehicle Wiring Products"
Also All later mk2/3 and led rear lights as cerbra mod are Hella, although you'll need a spacer if fitting MK2 Reverse lights as spots to a new shape Tuscan front grill for a upgrade.
Hella also do the xenon upgrade simple fit.
Early Tuscan indicators/ tail lights are real common military spec units if you want clear front and rear indicator lenses for an upgrade.

Mark2 Tuscans and convertibles use the sidelamp hole in the mainbeam unit ... TVR must have run out when my car was made, they drilled out ones without holes and stuffed Griff bulbs/holder with insultion tape wrapped around. Cost me £100 to put it right, but the wiring loom is still butchered
