This is why i have Halogen lights still on my car. Thankyou for reminding me why I am reluctant to "modernize".
But the H4 headlights also clog up when the weather wants to. wich is why many plastic hedalights end up being scraped for ice by stupid owners here. Lucky me found good used ones unscraped.
Some Lazer and high prized led bars and driving lights are sold here with built in heat. Way out of my price range.
Very nice thread and good pictures, one of my favourite Blog/mod/build threads this

My brother got me these for Christmas, but due to the weather, only got around to fitting yesterday.
Fitment was pretty easy, took maybe half and hour or less.

Not too much to report. The Jimny is still going great in general. I've removed the lower panels on the Ironman4x4 bumper, as they catch the tyres under flex! I've tried moving the bumper about, but to no avail. Odd they didn't design the bumper to cater for bigger than stock tyres.
But not too much else happening really. I'm at the point where I don't feel it needs any further mods, not unless I plan to do something very specific with it, such as need a roof rack for an awning kind of thing.
Overall the vehicle looks and drives great, on and off road.
Just spent the last few days laning in Wales, but that was in the Land Rover. I'm sure the Jimny would have served fine, although the Land Rover just makes it all look so easy. I think I'd be more concerned with damaging the Jimny if I'm honest.
