82 Malibu Wagon in New Zealand

Well found the issue with the headlights, she has a 2A1 headlight & all we could get here was a 2A1X which for some reason makes the four headlights work on full & dip. So took those back & bought some H4's & tried those with some different bulbs but same issue, you cant run the left hand drive headlights here because of the pattern so got a curly one here that i might have to get a sparky to figure out unless anyone's got some suggestions Cheers

To be honest going from the original 2A1 light to H4 conversion lights would be better. My '81 Monte has a set of Hella H4 high/low beam conversion bulbs & H1 high beam conversion bulbs as even here in the states H4's are easier to find. Even converting my son's '79 Monte to Hella conversion H4 bulbs.

Yeah im pleased we got those in her, my parts guy told me to try something to which solved the problem. Just had to switch the two side headlight wires round on the main headlight plugs & that fixed it, something so simple that sorted it. Onto the power steering box next that's my last big job to sort 👌
