You will have to get a new Globe. Edited 26/09/06 01:14 AM by 937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest xr6t300 Guests Posted 26/09/06 07:11 AM Share Posted 26/09/06 07:11 AM Your globe is u/s just go to a auto store and pick another up and do it yourself or replace it with the better globes 30% brighter but do both sides if you change the brightness of the globes hi and low beam I did.I did mine and from memory I took the airbox off as it can be a mongrel of a job unless you got rubber hands that can twist 90 degrees. I found that doing the R/H/S where the battery is easier actually got my hands between the battery and the light unit but those clips that hold the globe in can be a drama.
