    Default VX headlight question

    Hi all, having an issue with my vx calais headlights, basically turning them on is like doing nothing, i can hardly tell they are on, i have checked the wattage they are 60/55 i think thats normal and the aim is fine too, anyone else had this problem? and if so how did you go about fixing it? ....and yes my eyes are fine too lol.....thanks

    The extra heat from the higher wattage ones can distort the lens

    When shopping don`t even consider buying narva 50+ as there really about 5+, I`ve had 90/100 ones in mine for 3 months odd now with no probs.
