John asked, about halogen headlights: ...Anyone know if the conversion is hard or do or not?...
This is a reasonably straight-forward job - it involves doing exactly what you would do to replace a broken standard sealed-beam headlight, except that you install the halogen unit where the sealed-beam bulb went. I seem to remember removing the cast metal headlamp surround to do this - my only problem was that there was so much rust around the front of the bonnet (water no doubt seeps in between the surround and the sheet metal underneath, then sits there doing its evil work) that there wasn't a lot to screw the surround back down to! Allow an hour absolute max, I would say (should take a LOT less, but you should always have contingency!). With Daffy as a year-round daily driver, and some quiet country roads on my route, I needed as much light as I could get! I agree with James that, while the halogens are an improvement, they still do not get close to some modern cars.
