LIGHT ON THE RIGHT HANDLEBAR

If you have double-filament H4 lamps in crystal headlights, it is useless to twist them in the old-fashioned way:

Established Japanese light

But such a "northern
lights" is obtained if
the light bulb is turned
counterclockwise

Daubing when turning the lamp is obtained due to the fact that the sectors of the reflector responsible for the high beam begin to light up.

It is dangerous to drive with the Japanese light - it blinds the drivers of oncoming cars. To avoid this, many owners of PR cars “adjust” the headlights (sometimes for money), in other words, lower them as much as possible down, but this is also not an option: nothing is visible on the road.

First of all, on the purchased car, you need to remove the daw from the oncoming lane and adjust the headlights so that you can see it yourself and not blind anyone.

We cut off a strip of tin 5 mm wide and about 7 cm long, bend it as shown in the photo below, and insert it into the lamp base. After that, it is necessary to experimentally select such a position of the curtain, in which an even strip is obtained on the wall - this is the "American light". You can fix the curtain with a drop of zapon varnish. Never use superglue! - it will begin to soar inside the headlight, settling with a matte layer on the glass.

Approximately the same thing can be done on a standard xenon
