Agreed with JC. The headlamp protectors that you can fit to XR's already reduce the quality of your beam by 20%. Why reduce that margin even further?

there are blokes in the B series that have similar head light protectors....use them during the day and take them off at night when you need your lights on!
just a thought

The AU XR ones aren't as straightforward to remove as the ones on the B series though, unfortunately. Just taking them off when giving them a clean on the insides is an exercise in time management and patience.

I've never seen a jet engine on an AU either - might be worth starting another thread about.

That would be worth starting a thread about. Put it in the Workshop Builds forum.
