BHPian ![]() | ![]() thanks Tsk In that case i think its better to stick to 90/100. I don't want to end up with burnt reflector in search of brighter light. what bulb would you suggest in 90/100W? OSRAM/Philips ? |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Different reflectors give different light patterns for different bulbs. Try Halonix/Philips/Mico/Bosch etc., before buying. Some reflectors like OHC are very suited to Hella Gold(Don't ask me why!) |

| ![]() I have just upgraded the headlight bulbs of my new GETZ D to 100/90. Used Halonix bulbs with a relay. Unfortunately as the changeover happened during broad daylight, it was not possible to check the complete functionality of the headlights. On the same night, I have noticed two issues: 1. Although the light intensity has improved over the stock bulbs, the headlight has started to spray the beam all over the place. ![]() 2. The mechanic seem to have messed up the high & low beam connections as it is now functions the opposite way, i.e. - pulling the lever close to steering engages high beam & pushing it away puts in on low beam. ![]() Any idea what could be the solutions to both the problems? |

| ![]() Hi Bhaskar, To sort out the problem of your headlight switch working the opposite, suggest you check the wiring of the modifications done. The mechanic could have the connections reversed which is why your lights function in the way thet do now. This once happened to me when I changed a blown relay in my Maruti 800, but luckily I checked it before leaving the service center. Tip: Always check the functioning of the lights (low/high beams) after you have changed the stock bulbs/wiring or relays. Cheers, Pritish Quote:
