[s-cars] New to 'S' cars

Bob...

Blau used to carry a kit, but don't for our cars anymore.  Thank god I keep everything.  I found the old package from my UrS4 days and it had some part numbers.  A little Google work, and here you go:

I guess I'll get some also!

Good point, Chris.  If the lights are unknowingly "dimmed" then
nothing will help.  But I disagree with your view of the stock
lighting.  Those steenking little 1.2 watt bulbs just don't cut
it.  Replacing them with 2 watt bulbs makes a BIG difference.  Three
watt bulbs would probably be better if they even exist.

BTW, does anyone have a suggestion where the 2 watt bulbs can be
located.  Scott Mockry has them listed on his on-line catalog but
they are noted as not available.

Bob
