tractor lights? any good?
A mate of mine from work has just brought these lights;
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=36799&item=4519441804&rd=1
There from a massy tractor and have all the e markings and stuff, but not sure on the beam pattern. Are there any give away markings on the lense that
I should look for, to indicate what side they should go on, and if they have the right footprint for car use?
cheers

Have you ever seen a tractor with working lights?
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Tractors are generally 12v - so you can pinch stuff for the cars no problem
Murphy's 2 laws
1. If it can go wrong it will
2. In case of emergency - refer to rule 1.

If it's 24v you can swap the bulbs, they use the same fitting systems usually.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

The guy showed me the lights at work today, and your right, they do look a bit naff, plus don't have the bulbs. As for the £20 quid one's
on ebay, I remember seeing a thread that mentioned that they had no direction on them and were for a motor bike?? Dunno if that's true
though.......
Will be taking a trip down to lucas this avo I think.
As for seeing a tractor with working lights, nope, tend to be stuck behind doing 15mph around here, bloody farmers.

Around my way the farmers have those enormous high speed tractors usually driven flat out by idiots -- no much fun to meet on a narrow road.
