But if they dim and take like a whole second or two to regain full brightness does this mean you should probably consider upgrading your charging system

Questions Unregistered guest	Posted on Wednesday, September 14, 2005 - 20:53 GMT Should check at the Alternator and at the amp. To see how much teh alternator pushing out and how much the amp is getting. Ima consider getting a bigger battery for my Civic. Any reccomendations?
