Hi UK Buddies,

In the EU model we also have a WY21W bulb for the turn signal

I already changed them with LED's
Here's the link of the Bulbs I bought : http://www.ledperf.com/ampoule-wy21...puissance-loupe-oranges-culot-t20-p-5414.html

And the results between the stock bulb (left) and the LED bulb (right) :


And both sides with the LED bulb :


Cheers !

Thanks for that, have you changed the fogs, drl, etc for led as well?

Did you have to fit resistors as well?

Yep, I changed all the Bulbs for LEDs. The only bulb I didn't changed is the Fog bulb. I will swap the entire light for the US version (already ordered and currently shipping to me)

Did you have to fit resistors as well?

No I forgot the resistors in my order, so now with LED I've an error on the Dashboard. The turn signal in the dashboard is now 2 time faster as before.

The resistors are ordered and currently shipping to me.

Just read the instructions for Anchor Room red tail light vinyls .... Says "installation environment and car must be 70F or greater - do not attempt at lower temperature"
Brilliant, 70F is 21C, so that's one day possibly late July I "might" be able to install them :frusty::frusty:
Americans mustn't realise we don't do reasonable temperatures over here!

If you know of any garages or such you can use heating lamps to get it up to that temperature pretty easy?

I don't

I don't

Damn, not got any wrapping companies around they'll do it for dirty cheap as it's just light tints (Usually £25-50 including buying materials, if u have materials I'm sure it wont be a lot)

Or you could get a heat gun? (also check your missus' hairdryer as they get pretty hot.) Heat guns are quite cheap and you can get the section over 20c, wont need ot be hotter than that post application to the surface I believe. Overall, i don't think the ambient temperature around the car should be able 20c, just the actual section that needs wrapping (surely?).

There's a tinting company round the corner from my office, i might go and see them. The instructions do say not to attempt if the car & environment are lower than 70F.

If the rear lights are easy to unplug and remove then you could take them indoors and apply the vinyl

 

[Big_G]

Tinting company want 40 quid to fit! Guess August it is then

Looks like it's going to be august redlight district within M6G then.



I mean the tail lights - not amsterdam!

The taillights are easily removed, just take them off and apply the vinyl indoors. http://www.mustang6g.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38283

FRPP Track Handling kit turned up today

Also seem to have avoided the dreaded HMRC's customary ransom note surprising as it came in three boxes and weighs 120lbs and has Ford Racing stamped all over it :lol:

Thanks Santa :first:
