Direct replacement, just tuck your loom extensions out the way in ase you wish to revert.

Will your car pass mot with only low beam lamps?

I was debating converting to a 2 lamp, but have never asked the question..

There is high beam in the outer lights.  H4 bulbs are twin filament 60/55w.

Ah so it's already there?

It leads me to ask the question, why the other lights then?

Just for a better high beam?

Yep, extra driving lights.  Some models have them as fog lights with a different lense pattern supposedly being able to see better in the fog, they are about as much use as a chocolate teapot.

Yep, just for better high beam.

For info, a car won't pass the test with high beam not working (but you'll have no worries, see above).
