twin headlight conversion

Post by niterida » Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:34 am

Hey Guys - I bought myself a set of twin headlights for one of my Brumbys but I have since realised that the radiator support panel is different for these compared to single headlights.

Is it possible to fit the twin headlights in there or do I need the different radiator support ?

If its not possible anybody wanna buy a set of twins ??

nope can't do it unless you change the front panel + radiator support, from the single headlight model to the double headlight model.

Just a bit of drilling, welding and some re wiring and hey presto twin headlights

The M.Y. Touring wagons and Coupes also have the twin headlight support panel :)

To tell the truth its not that big a deal - I only bought them cos they were there and they were cheap (ish) and I assume they bolted straight in.

Will probably put them back up for sale and just keep the single lights.

Go the twins as H-top would say!

The twin head light setup looks tops on the brumby IMO.
