3M headlight restoration kit would bring that up a treat 

[cd 2.2]

As far as bulb upgrades go (if your on halogens) I am currently using 100w H1 And 100w H7's .. It was the only way I could get enough light down for safe night driving and have not yet had any ill effect on the wiring or plastics

Its illegal and you will have

Well I care not about the legality of the bulbs  ... All I know is "I can see at night now" and that's the main importance for me to be honest! Theory being that the illegal bulbs are better than not being able to see at night when there is any form of oncoming traffic (I travel on unlit roads allot at night)! If there is any issues with the wiring, I will just rip out what's problematic and upgrade it! The only probable thing to happen is that the connectors to the bulbs fail (very minimal risk of this happening) and the standard fuses for the lights are enough to cope with the load created by the 100w bulbs ... I seriously doubt this would ever happen to be fair. The light units get no hotter than they did before (I checked thoroughly before using them full time)

Each to their own I guess but we will see in time

If the bigger bulbs cause issues for other drivers, then I have a big problem with it. Round these parts, every selfish retard adjust at least one of their lights way too high, and they may argue that its safer because they can see, without realising nobody else can 

If it doesn't, then as a minimum, do the job properly, with relays and better wiring, before it melts switchgear and wiring, which could be problematic if it happens at 100mph down the motorway.

The other problem round here is everyone drives with their bloody idiot lights on all the time. These should never, ever be used, as we rarely get that level of fog in the UK (last week, maybe).

They are uncontrolled lights, and cause dazzle. Typical of the opps you jack, I'm alright mentality sweeping the country

bloody word filter. idiot=t w a t=front fog lights
