575 Headlights

wysri9 · 08-16-2010, 07:16 AM

I have just returned from an excellent 850 mile weekend round trip which certainly confirmed to me what many of you will already know - this is a fantastic car for eating up the miles. Really enjoyed the trip and am looking forward to many more!

One aspect that did not impress however was the performance of main beam headlights. Dipped was great with super sharp definition of the beam pattern and good illumination throughout the area (as one would expect). However the mains disappointed. Should I be looking to adjust more carefully or is this a known weakness - in which case any thoughts on possible improvements??

Any thoughts and comments welcomed.

Have you considered HID lights?

One of the guys converted a 355 to HID sometime ago and by all accounts it was a good conversion.
