Default Re: Mounting headlight bulbs

Männers,

it took me a long time to understand the slanted light on my white house wall, regardless of the switch position I or II. One of the many previous owners confused the cables of the two filaments of one lamp with one another! This is now noticed when I mounted the other lightbulb with "V" + "-" filament.

But I'm insecure: With "-" + "-" filament bulb I have a clean separation between city lights and high beams. But with the "V" + "-" filamens the horizontal light bar is very blurry. And the reaction to the adjustment of the focus changes only a little bit. The further I tighten the screw, the higher the cone of light rises.

Badpuppy,
yes, the "V" + "-" type is 50/32. The "-" + "-" light bulb shows "Vijaylux (?) 1000".
