Bulb kit for a 120

[Sam]

Oops - nearly forgot the bulbs

Can anyone confirm the bulb size spec for the 120?

I'm thinking any foamed travel kit with an H4 will do? Does this sound right?

Thanks for any help

yep - I bought the Halfrauds one with the headlight aiming jobbies and the GB sticker ... and the yellow reflective vest and fire extinguisher - don't forget those

 

[Sam]

Got everything else except the beam converter - that's in the basket in amazon waiting for the bulb kit

Going for the Eurolite jobbies - cheap enough - hopefully ok. Already got the GB plate.

Cheers Gary

and the first aid kit ....

the list goes on - pays to check the AA / RAC websites

and a breathalyser in France from 01 July

You'll need to leave the food at home at this rate

And the other item is the warning triangle

That should be it - not sure if Spain is different - but there weren't too many policia waiting in the Pyrenees. Andorra was a long strip mall, so not really a problem

 

[Sam]

yup yup - got all that...

I'll post up a list of everything once it's all together

 

[Crispin]

not sure how much this is upheld but I was lead to believe (read it on some credible website? ) that the fire extinguisher and triangle have to be accessible from the driver's seat and not allowed to be in the boot. Guessing if you get a cop who's wife has just left him for an Englishman and your triangle is in the boot, it's jail for you for the night

IIRC the high vis vests can't be in the boot (must be to hand) but the triangles can - and the fire extinguisher / first aid kit is a recommended not a legal requirement.

The latter two being part of the "good Samaritan" law that says if you don't stop to help someone in distress (accident etc) then you get a really rather large fine.

Of course, all things looking safe (given the state of the organised crime on the roads in France and Spain at the moment) I'm sure most would stop anyway. Imagine needing a law for that!?!

and if you wear glasses you must have a spare pair to hand....

Not just 1 ??

When was that ?

[Jon Wildsmith]

I thought I'd read 2 for Spain as well, probably in one of the caravan magazines.

 

[Sam]

Yup definitely 2 for Spain

 

[Graham]

Yup definitely 2 for Spain

OK, good info.

so is it place 1 triangle 10 meters back, and the second 50 meters back ?

To answer your query, a H4 kit is what you need.
