    Any takers here?

    Yes, or bow the holes down a bit. After either a good coat of Waxoyl ("other products are available ... ") in the lower part of the door should help.

    How about Tudor?

    I've seen some I assume genuine wipacs advertised as having a 'plastic' reflector.

    And a nos 70s/80s Wipac kit. Pethaps better quality and wouldn't rust. You'd hope not, as almost twice the price of current Wipacs. £79.00+ £9.97 postage

    Alan, didn't realise the owner of SVC had retired, although I guess he is a similar age to a lot of us so not surprising. He was always worth chatting to as he had a classic of his own and always seemed knowledgeable about his products.

    Hello all,

    I bought a new generator at an autojumble. There is a sticker on it, that it is positive earth.

    My car is negative earth. How do I repolarize it?
    It is still outside the car

    Thanks in advance

  • Jeremy MkIII25 January 2025

    Talking of progress.
    There's a belief that each generation is more intelligent than the previous one.
    Years ago car manuals showed owners how to adjust an engine's valves, now they warn not to drink battery acid.

  • Mike Howlett25 January 2025

    15 years ago I fitted a pair of Wipac Quadoptics on my MGB and they were OK. But within less than 2 years the reflectors were quite rusty. I changed them for Cibie / Valeo H4 and they are superb and still going strong. But you don't seem to be able to find them these days.

    I had four small Autopal lights on my Dolomite. The light beam was somewhat scattered but they gave a decent enough ill...

  • J P Hall25 January 2025

    Thanks Paul. I'm thinking maybe make the new holes elongated to maybe 1cm, for better water egress. Any thoughts? I'm in tropical North Queensland, so evaporation is good!
    John.
