    Default Highbeams turn on/off by themselves

    I've also had this exact problem on a VS i also drive.

    It's worse on the VS (but it's never driven), but in the VT even going over a bump the highbeams will turn on for a split second. Anyone else got this problem? I assume it's a problem with the inicator stalk or something, but it drives me nuts, and im sure it would annoy some drivers as well.

    Any solutions?

    Yes it is most likely to be the indicator stalk which needs replacing.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    same answer, it used to happen to me too and that was cured by replacing the stalk with one from the wreckers

    Yep as above indicator stalk, you can check just by turning your headlights on and "wiggling" the stack backwards and forwards, if it turns on/off then there's your answer, my mechanic changed mine for 100 bucks but i think you could by one from ebay or the wreckers and do it yourself for 20 or something?
