No, I suspect it’s more to do with aesthetics - how the car looks to an observer. They don’t call the lighting fittings “jewellery” without reason. Ron B. VK2OTC

Agreed!

Can anyone who has fitted these please tell me what you did with the long wires from the new units? Did you manage to poke them into the new unit and then fit the original bulb holder back in?

Cheers.

You circle the wires into the light fitting ‐ quite simple to do. The old bulb holder then secures to the light unit to seal it.

Remember to move across the rubber seals from the old ones.

I have stock of the reversing lights and have written instructions with pictures.








Much improved night time visibility:

Does this mean you are actually selling these? Whistle The older I get, the more I realise that people confuse wrinkles for wisdom Smile
