When I get round to fitting a knocklink I want to hide the big ugly box away and make a much more discrete LED display for it.

Are the LEDs used standard ~2V items, and what colour is the big one? Am I right in saying the first 4 are 2 green, 1 yellow, 1 red?

Finally is it quite easy to add the connections onto the board, simply connecting the new LEDs up in parallel?

Cheers.

Easiest thing to do is just remove the board & stuff from the box, find a convenient bit of the dash/pillars & drill a hole in them in the right places

Unless you don't want to destroy anything in which case you may have a point...

Cool

Charlie, that looks v.smart.

Never been a fan of A-post pods but that looks cracking. Where did the pod come from?

cheers,

I got it from jamie at JWRacing. Didn't fancy an a-pod one myself but when I saw this one I quite liked it and it does seem very well made. They come in 1,2 or 3 pod I believe. the web site is www.j-w-racing.com

Nice one, so the big one is "big red" then... kinda obvious what colour

Might just go for big blue though cos blue LEDs seem to be bloody distracting for some reason, even more than red!
