Started the 4 hour drive back from the airport at midnight after 5 day in Italy to find the dipped beams were not working. After driving a bit with high beam or fogs I switched the cables from the high beam to the dipped to atr least get home alive. Anyway I've now checked the switch, and steering column stuff and can't find any problem. From what I can find out there are no relays for these lights but I wonder if something has been fitted latter as there are a lot more relays down there than listed in the manual? Any ideas? I will probably rewire and fit relays up front but it would be usefu

Hi James, welcome to Sweden. I'm actually from Australia, have been here two years and will be for 1 more. Summer is pretty nice but just wait for the winter! Offset is the distance from the inside edge of the rim/wheel to the face that fits up against the hub/disc. Front wheel drive cars tend to have more offset (sit in further) than rear wheel drive. Fitting wheels with less offset will increase the track but the wheel bearings won't last so long. Going the other way you can run into trouble with clearance of the brakes, hoses and suspension components. Hope that gives you some idea.
