Led brake light/indicatos

Post by Jazzscot »

I got one of these from flea bay delivered today

Prob a stupid question but what are the little rectangle things in the picture?

Anybody fitted these before? if so any help would be gratefully received.

I thought what the hell, for the sake of 22 quid if its crap I can bin it.

Went out to the garage tonight for a play, fitted the led rear light and it works just fine. I was worried that it wouldn't be bright enough but it gives out plenty of red light at the back so no worries there.

I fed the wires in parallel to the existing indicators and they flashed away just fine along with the original ones still flashing away.

The resistor things do absolutely feck all as I pulled the original indicators and the led ones flashed like buggery.

So is it off to halfrauds for a relay thingy or the internet???

wiring help would also be cool as I have never fitted a rely before.

If you get a honda flasher relay it's a plug and play job :thumbup:

Jazz, You're very welcome. IMHO fitting a plug and play flasher unit (as Mike suggested) is the easiest even if not the cheapest option :thumbup:
