Re: GC hazards

Pre 75 jap spec?

My lights are a 3 way flick up/centre/down switch on the dash under the fuel gauge area. Down is off, up one is parkers. And all the way is low beam. Pull back on the indicator stalk and you have high beam.

If you're answer is yes to my first question, ignore my comment :P
