Default GC8 AFTERBURNER LIGHTS

Hi,

Does anyone know if you can change the L.E.D's on afterburner lights I have 4 that are not working properly when the brake pedal is engaged ?????

Regards,
Mark

best way to fix your problem is to throw them in the bin and put some proper lights in there...

lol, yes standard lights always have looked much better than clear..unless you smoke them a little. good example, if u have a classic, then jus fit standard sti lights on the rea, look much smarter

you will be able to buy new LEDs from your local electrical supplies store, if you can solder do it your self or strip the lights down and take them there. they are normally only pence per LED

Age and chaviness are not mutually exclusive - e.g. Jimmy Saville
