As you no doubt realize any failure of the
head lamps on a high speed Car at Night is exceedingly
dangerous and we would like you to consider the
possibility of a modification to the wire fixing at
this point. We consider a screw terminal with a
Ross Courtney fitting on the end of the wire would
meet the case ideally.

The C.A.V. Vibrator controller has given
every satisfaction even with the 48 watt head lamp
bulbs we have been using on this chassis.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
