[W126 Coupe] Driving Lights

[Mdefran at earthlink.net]

Since you are interested in not hitting kangaroos at night, might I suggest a couple of different options.

1) You probably already have euro headlights on the beast. If not, that would be step one.
2) If you have euro's already, you might try changing the bulb to a higher wattage bulb. I run 80w low and 100w highs and can light up the Mojave desert at night. Higher wattage than that are available, but certain wiring mods must be done to accomodate the wattage. Somewhere in our archives is discussion on the mod.
3) Increase the wattage of the fog light  bulb to 100w. This will at least fill in the area between the bumper and the headlights. I don't think I would go past 100w in the fogs as it gets pretty warm down there unless you want to rig something to dissipate heat.
4) Lastly some monster driving light that has been discussed here in the last day or so.

Good Luck,
