Re: [doc] Relay Part Numbers

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx>]

Hi John

The original headlights are sealed-beam Sylvania so the left-hand 
headlights we have (Valeo ones with 3rd party lenses) are non-original 
anyway. Any H4 bulb will fit them. BTW they're not Audi 80 but Audi 200 
and early Audi Quattro/Coupe. I'd be careful with "hotter" bulbs as they 
may warp the fascia. Something to bare in mind.

The centre console switches are Renault (in fact the R30 had illuminated 
switches which is what the missing pin is for), however the rocker bit 
is different and you'd need an old switch to swap the top off.

My car is very much a "work in progress". The foglight mod I've done on 
Flopsy is more "professional".
