Greetings,

With the dark nights I've been looking at the LR Fog/Driving light upgrade kit. Apart from reservations about it making the car look like a multi-eyed spider, can these be painted? They look a bit like matt, slightly textured, plastic.

Thanks,

Hugh

You can paint them got a set from Dan he had them on offer years ago £30 originally intended to fit them to my TD5 never got round to it. Now I'm looking for a RRS they'll be the the first upgrade. If it ain't broken down it soon will

My 2012 SDV6's lights aren't as good as my 08 TDV8's lights, that's for sure. I'm going to have a play with them to see if a bit of adjustment helps - I think it will. The 08 has AFS which is excellent but is something else to fail - been there! 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Wiring the AFS side-projection lights with the high-beam was something I considered experimenting with.

AFS is swiveling headlights. The fixed corner beam that you refer to isn't part of AFS. My non-AFS has fixed corner beams. Anyway, light out to the sides on main beam doesn't really bring much to the party. Light reaching down the road is what is needed. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
