DON'T BE DIM • All new vehicles registered after 1 April this year have to comply with the new dim/dip legislation for headlamps.
This requires a reducedintensity dipped beam headlamp to be shown when the sidelights and ignition are switched on. This means that the vehicle cannot be driven on sidelights alone, although the selection of dipped or main beam automatically overrides the dim/dip system.
Lucas Electrical offer a series of kits for operators who would like to comply with the new legislation on their pre-1 April vehicles. Four kits are offered to cover 12 and 24 volt Tungsten and Halogen headlamp systems, with an electronic controller which reduces the intensity of the headlamps to between 10 and 15% of their full output. The kits cost around 216.50 plus VAT, and are available from Lucas agents around the country.
