Respray and 7 inch headlight pictures
Discussion
I have just have the griffith reprayed and 7 inch headlights fitted.
Have used autogylm hd wax which works well is to apply and remove, now just need to clean up the leather
and hopefully the weather will get better soon
The rest of the picture are here

Thanks,
As per usual the headlamps weren’t the easiest of things to fit and the adjustment mechanism at the back could do with a bit more thought.
I had previously used the Bosh upgraded bulbs which worked much than the originals and are recommended over the original’s aka “soft candle light or moonlight bulbs”
When the car went in for a repray I decided to go the full distance and get the headlamps upgrade after seeing picture’s of an SE Griffith’s and various members cars from this forum. Subjectively the new headlights feel like they put out about 25% more light than the upgraded bulbs. I now need to get the main beams working on the headlights rather than just the spotlights coming on, which requires a relay and abit of re-wiring.
Very happy with the respray results this was done by someone recommended by Dan Taylor and was just starting up and now seems to have a steady stream of TVR’s to work on. The price was very competitive (sub £2.5K) although it took a few weeks longer than expected because I kept adding to the job list.

The car looks great with the new headlights. Mine is due a front end respray soon as I currently have a galaxy of stone chips I will probably go for this conversion at the same time.
Getting the wiring mod done so you can have full beam on the 7" as well as the spots would be a good shout.

Hi,
The contact details are below but Carbon Designs isn’t VAT registered as far as I know?

Rob is great car fanatic and like Dan a good bloke to talk to about all things mechanical
He has done quite a few TVR’s , full body re-sprays and crash repairs and outriggers including mine, Dan Taylor’s Chimera and others ( There were 3 Porsches and two Ferrari’s keeping my Griffith company) . He works out near Staplehurst from a large barn which looks very low tech until you open the doors and have a look around.
