[James B]

LED's are the way forward from maplins or similar

[kieronharrop]

can you just wire the LED in its place or do you need to solder in a resistor aswell?

Bet they know how to charge as well. I was quoted 2.50 a piece foe them, good luck!!

i no this might sound silly but have you thought of bulb paint?

was that for just the bulb, or the bulb and holder?

[Dod]

Didn't say, was apparently a direct fit so whatever it was it would work. Pretty dear i thought though. I like the idea myself.

Don't paint the bulbs, the paint will melt and go manky.

Direct replacement LEDs can be purchased from www.ultraleds.co.uk and a lot cheaper than halfrauds. Had LEDs from there in both my novas in the dash lights, dial lights, interior light, sidelights etc, and also on the Celica in the rear light cluster too.

If in doubt, email the guy on there and he'll tell you what ones you need.
