Default Re: 12v Halogen Convertion Review

As a general rule the halogen conversions do not work well with original lens.. The prizums in the lens are made for a pre-focused bulb, halogen bulbs are not pre-focused.
The halogen bulbs put out a lot of light, however, the light is not directed onto the road.
I found this out the hard way on my '39, ruined a perfect set of reflectors modifying then for the halogen bulb holders. Had to get another set of reflectors plated.
