Some extra lights to add sporting credentials to the Saab
Some 5" Lucas spotlights were secured to the top of the front bumper by drilling two 8mm holes.
Clamps are another option if you don't want to drill the bumper, but on the chrome bumper models, the centre section can be flipped over, if you wanted to remove the lamps at some point and not have the holes visible.
The lamps were wired via a fuse and a relay so that they would operate with the main beam. The relay was wired via a switch so that there was the option to use the lamps or not. The switch was put in place of the dashboard light dimmer as this didn't work anyway. A push pull switch was used but the original dimmer knob was made to fit to keep things looking right.
The lamps were adjusted on a quiet road at night.
The improvement in light levels was noticeable although, it was found that the main lamps lit up distant objects satisfactorily so the spot lamps were adjusted to light the road closer to the car.
