aftermarket headlights

[CREWZIN]

Easy to do too, Bill. My son (a lot of years back) bought a 67 Mustang Fastback 390. I was OK with it but one time I watched him pull out of the driveway at night and as he turned from the drive to the street, the car disappeared. It was dark green and it was night time I was looking at it from the side......couldn't see a thing.

Being a responsible father the next day I bought a set of lighted reflectors (2 red and 2 amber) and fitted them to the sides of the car (thereby devaluing it by thousands) but cleared my fear of him getting from the side becuase another driver couldn't see the car. Hooked them up to the parking lights.

Worked for a No Such Agency here and took several tours overseas. The Government ships anything I want over there including 1 car. Took the Vette to England from 92-95. It went by ship. Had to change headlights (to reflect on the left side of road), tail lights (added amber turn lights - mandatory) and had to add a 21 watt amber light in back - for fog).

Driving on the right is different to say the least. For first six months had to keep telling myself "stay to the left" but that didn't work a couple times (forgot) but didn't end up in any crashes. It was worse coming back after three years as I kept pulling out to the left over here. A couple scary moments. Even though there are hundreds of Vettes (and lots of other American cars) over there, it still attracted attention no matter where I went. I had another car plus a motorcycle (TRIBSA) to use for work and the wife had her own car plus the weather really sucks so I only put about 3K a year on it.

As far as the plates go. As long as the letters are correct size you can have 2 lines (instead of 1) and all the lettering fits. White plate on front, yellow in the rear.

Well sometimes going off topic is a good thing

Wife and I toured Wales (in that VW that I posted on another thread). Took in the whole coast road to see all the castles. Don't remember the roads being that bad, just the weather.
