What headlight to light up the night

Currently hacking round on a sprint st 955i

Previous owner dropped it and battered the front nose so it's sporting a "generic cowl" with one of those twin led projector jobs... its bright about 10-15ft infont but that's about it, full beam is slightly brighter and a little higher but it's got a wank beam pattern.

7" size needed.

You're going about this the wrong way, what you want is a pair of good quality night vision goggles.

A bit more of an idea on what you have would be good. As in how it mounts and such.

Given the very limited info. A generic 250LC replica headlamp shell with a decent sealed beam insert and a good quality LED bulb would give pretty adequate lighting for most instances.

I'm currently looking at upgrading dipped and beam to LEDs. Recommended set though are £80 which seems a lot.

Gone down the better route, managed to score an entire stock front end off the marketplace so its now going back standard
