Headlight bulbs ?

[swm]

Just been for the MOT on the PX.
Got there and the headlight bulb had blown,tipical ! Tester swapped the blown 35/35 W halogen H4 type bulb for a 60/55W (the only one he had) to get me through the test .
Will this higher wattage be ok or should I get another 35W bulb ?
Dunno if I should be worried about heat issues ?

Cheers.

ive been told that it depends on your regulator - it will only allow a certain power output. If youve got your 60W headlight on and you brake and indicate, there will not be enough power to be shared between all these bulbs.

Try a 35W halogen bulb and see if that is any good.

I would change to a 35 Watt at the earliest opportunity......before you blow the regulator up
