Bright idea huh? Blow one bulb, lose two headlights. Not the first time that
I've heard of this sort of thing - didnt Rover play with something like this
a few years ago? They (or another European company) ran a few experimental
vehicles where ALL the lights (head, tail, interior and turn signals) were
fed via optic fibre from one source. I never saw the results but I notice
that the idea hasnt reached production models yet.
