Am picking up new Scooby on the 1st and am concerned about the discussions regarding the light output. Sounds like night-vision goggles are required judging by some posts! http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Is the standard lighting on a MY2000 really that bad? Would be motorway / A road driving mostly, with B roads ( travel to villages ), and my present car ( Mondeo ) is fine with the standard lighting for what I need.

What would be the recommended solution if the car's lighting is not enough - upgrade the headlamp bulbs ( keeping legal ) or the PIAA driving lamp upgrade? Am really interested in getting the PIAA upgrade anyway.

Thanks for any advice.

Dave.

The MY00 lights are better but still pretty hopeless. I have changed the headlight bulbs to Xenon which helps a bit more, going to change the fogs bulbs to xenon this weekend as well (pain in the arse turning them on and off, remember its not legal to have them on if there's no fog).

I would like the PIAA's but they are expensive. The cibies are cheaper but I hear problems (no offence) and they don't look as neat as the PIAA's.

I would just do what I have done for now, upgrade to Xenon bulbs (Halfords £9.99 or there abouts)

Hi both,

I've setup a page on my web site just about PIAA bulbs and lights, give it a shot ...

See my bbs post on the 12-2-2000 for details of costs of plasma blue Piaa bulbs and also
a wiring diagram at

Kev,

Surfed to scooby.org (instead of a reading a tedious Finance case). Good work mate, it's an excellent site. Convinced me of the need for some driver training.
However . .you've got a Y2K bug.
