Do any listers have an idea why neither headlamp motor on a TR8 won't run the lamps up? I hear the motor relays clicking and have checked the connections in the front end. A consideration is the circ

Listers just placed a order for "Tripod" headlamps from a co. in the U.K. and they replied that these lamps are for "Right Hand Drive Cars" can this be wiring or what is the difference in seal beams

When you dip your lights the beam is pointed away from oncoming traffic so if you use RHD lamps on a LHD traffic system you will dazzle oncoming traffic, and get a fine from the police. RHD lamps poi

Think about it. In England you drive on the left, so it would stand to reason that your lenses would dip to the left whereas on the right, the lenses refract to the right. This would minimize glare

I always thought that the light bulbs themselves emitted light straight out and the aiming adjustment of the "can' was what took care of aiming the lights. Learn something new every day! Deano --

Just another FYI - part of the DOT specs is that headlamps for US market (LHD) are designed so that any single lamp can be used either on Drivers' or Passenger side of the car as long as the top is c

Can you stand one more, Fred? Pertinent to the original question about Tripod lamps. The one you probably want is the one often pictured on factory photos of TR3s and early TR4s -- the "P700" lamp. T

The difference is in the direction the low beams point. When you dim ("dip", in UK) your headlamps, the beams not only point downwards, they also point to the side. For LHD cars, they point to the ri

For RHD, LH Traffic bulbs the tape should be from 7 o'clock to 9 because the light does not come from the filament, instead it comes from the reflector. When the bulb is diped, there should little li
