Check your Lights

I would like to remind people that we need to check our lights every now and then (like once a month) and not by just turning on the switch.

I bring this up because I see it all to often (as a former coachman and motorcycle instructor). In fact tonight I saw a fellow Deli.ca member with no brake lights. So at the next convenient stop I ran up to him to let him know. He seemed a bit surprised.
After I passed him I also noticed he had no headlights. Electrical gremlins I thought.

Especially in the winter - not a bad idea to make sure all your lights are functioning properly. Maybe with a few spares in the G-box as well.

nxski -stop in at any Hod Rod shop and pickup a dashboard mounted headlight switch and add it to the dash and get rid of the factory headlight switch it will be the best $25.00 you ever spend... These switch have dimmers, and circuit breakers built in.

There is even a place for it on the dash where the factory dimmer is blanked out...
