X8800 Extract from RL/M11.10.27. (X.4808) "Two or three things occur to me :- (2) Secondly our side lights are uncomfortably bright. My 7-EX has tissue paper paper inside. Chrysler's have tiny lamps so that the side light current which is on for parking could be reduced by 50% to 75% = 1/2 to 1/4 of what it is now: this would make the difference." | ||
