Subject:      Extra Headlight Question + Driving Lights?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

I'm going to do some headlight upgrades to my 89 Westy. The wiring upgrade
is a must, but instead of stepping up to the plate with the Square E Codes
(Big $$$), I was wondering the possibility of mounting some Hellas on/above
the front bumper that would be connected to the low beams. Is there any
reason why this would not be possible or legal? I would think it would be
just like have fog lights. I'm not a lighting expert, but I would imagine
you can buy extra lights with whatever pattern you want. Offroad truck guys
have lights mounted all over the place. Has anyone done this?

Another question: When people refer to driving lights are they talking about
the highs, the lows, or something different? I've heard this term but never
really paid enough attention to the context to understand the meaning.
Thanks
