And while you're at it, can anyone tell me why the disco 1 headlights are totally crap? Even full beam leaves a lot to be desired.
Has anyone checked the voltage to the lights?
I used to own a VW T4, and their lights were crap too. It was due to VW using such a long wire run to them, that they get a 2volt loss. The fix was to rewire with a separate relay, like you would with fog/ spot lights.

the headlights are ****e, specially if your putting guards or bullbars or winch bumpers infront of em. i think the big bumper probs dont help
bite the bullet, go to halfrauds and get some super brilliance bulbs, bogof at the moment, they do loads of different ones now, we got some when we got the 2nd disco, and they made a fair bit of difference. think they've got even stronger ones now, and blue-y ones like new car bi-xenon ones

or fit Disco2/3 headlights?
I've just got the standard bulbs fitted so it's not a problem with high current drain and the wiring's OK apart from the plugs.
I usually find the lights are OK when they're working properly. I'll give the brighter bulbs a try though.
By the way, Mr.V, it looks like you've got an early Mk1 Disco. Didn't they have smaller headlights? I think its fairly easy to fit the larger Mk1 lights. Don't know about the Series 2 lights though.
