tks - 28/1/05 at 03:20 PM

Hi,

i have ordered the tipical lights from england for my luego velocity,

bow i'm playing with the switches and i wondered that have those lights 3 beams in it?

i mean a normal car has 3 lights

Normal (very weak)
Dimm (Beam) normal driving
Big Straight Beam (Large...) driving in heavy rain etc..

does a kitkar also has those lights??

and wich of them are sva needed???

The 3 lights are:

Sidelight or Position Light (as the SVA manual calls it)
Main beam
Dipped beam

Yes, you need all 3 for SVA, but the sidelight doesn't have to be in the headlight unit (but it often is for a seven-type car, as it's convenient).

Make sure you get the lights dipping the right way for the Continent as well.

The lights usually fitted to the Velocity are 5 3/4" diameter and should have a 5w parking or side light, and a H4 bulb to give you dipped and main beams.
For Spain the lights will have to dip to the right hand side.
You can see these lights on our web site www.s-v-c.co.uk , in the headlight section.
The Cibie lights you have mentioned are auxillary driving lightrs and will not be suitable as the main headlights on your car.
Hope this is of assistance
