    Interesting that halfords get mentioned in this article as is well known it the trade that halfords employees more often than not fit bulbs incorrectly. Most of the headlamp alignment issues the we see at our test centre are either owner fitted or halfords fitted bulbs.

    We have a customer that took his car to a Renault dealer for a service and it came back with a note on the invoice that a headlamp was not working ( Quote – fitting a bulb is not part of the service !!!) so he bought a bulb from us and fitted it incorrectly and subsequently at mot time we failed it . Refitted it for him and he went away a happy customer .

    The amount of cars coming towards me with one light straight in my eye is probably 1 in 5.Owners should leave to us professionals to get it right first time
