Subject:Updated Tail Lamps
From:Bill Prats

Since I am so pleased with the GoWesty high power Headlights I wanted
to upgrade the weak tail lights of my 1989 Westy.  I found a complete
set of tail lamps and the front parking lamps at
http://community-2.webtv.net/VanStuff/VanagonWestfalia/

I have to say, before this I really didn't realize how seemingly
unsafe night driving can be with those teeny tiny tail lights, the
running light was only 5 watts, the same as a Christmas tree light
.... The replacement lamp is 40 watts and the others are 50 watts,
what a big difference.  I no longer do much night driving but if I do
at least now I'll feel safer.

Well, now with the bright GoWesty Head Lamps and this upgrade, all
thats left on the outside is to find and install a THIRD Tail lamp
.... those made for motor cycles look good then next is to do a neat
installation of the PIAA clear fog lamps once seen at the auto parts
store.

Hope this helps ...... Bill89Westy23
