rodmax 0 Posted May 11, 2012 Hi I have a good friend who works in a body-shop.He's going to do my rear lights,all red. Depending on how they turn out , if there good enough (ie perfect) & the price is ok. I do have a couple of spare sets so could maybe do an exchange type service. Who would be interested???

Drewie 10 Posted May 13, 2012 I might be interested, provided they don't fade back to orange. I'm not far from gloucester either so could swap easily it goes through. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My all red rears have faded slightly so aren't such an issue now :) Just buy a spare set for MOT time shirley? Can't be much more than £25 for a full set. They will eventually fade over time but you're talking years not months. Just get them re-done if they do. Still a great, simple OEM mod in my opinion! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted May 13, 2012 I think you can use green bulbs which will make the light appear orange through red lenses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben_wooduk 0 Posted May 13, 2012 You need LEDs because green bulbs are poo, i have tested them, infact my brother almost crashed into the back of me because of them!! Also, as long as you polish and wax your all red rears as much as the car itself they wont fade, as with anything, they just need looking after! Oh and my car has passed MOT 4 years on the trot with red rears, LEDs are the way forward :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
