Spanners, nicely executed !! I do like the way it looks, reminds of a '21 I was considering buying.

Have a look at JW Speaker LED headlights.
The reason the dual headlights aren't much brighter is because the light is not cumulative. In other words, what is already illuminated by one light will not be illuminated brighter by a second identical light but may allow you to adjust them for a somewhat wider spread.
Again, lighting interests me due to also being a Jeep aficionado.

Kees bought a 2009 fatbob and still has his 1984 shovel. He was round at the weekend helping me finish the fake.
