Re: [Chrysler300] Lefty's "BRIGHT" idea

["PaddyCaddy ." <paddycaddy@xxxx>]

Hey, if you're going the speed of light and you turn your headlights on - 
what happens ??

Whilst you guys work that one out, I have another coupla headlight 
questions.

I have a client in Europe who says his country forbids sealed beam headlamps 
on his old cars (1950's) and they "they" used to sell headlamps that were 
Euro legal for these cars "back in the day."

Second, is there really someone out there producing the far superior newer 
stlye headlamps to fit our Brutes ?? Methinks I'd be a buyer if so..

Sean.
