bristolbaron 10 Posted November 10, 2013 well worth getting a decent layer of lacquer on them, much easier to flat back then for a super shiny finish! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clumpy1 11 Posted November 10, 2013 That's exactly what my mate said Baz. They should look good when done 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted November 10, 2013 Have you got the LED bulbs yet James? I'm not sure what colour to use for the indicators, as the only thread with links are for normal white rather than amber ones. Harder to find the amber ones too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure what colour to use for the indicators, as the only thread with links are for normal white rather than amber ones. Harder to find the amber ones too. No I haven't yet Sean thing is I already have red rear's that Baron done and I am pretty sure am running normal bulb's.Have you got a link for the LED's? Will these do?? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-1156-1129-BA15S-Car-P21W-White-9-LED-Tail-Turn-Signal-Brake-Light-Bulb-/271089624743?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f1e3366a7 Edited November 10, 2013 by clumpy1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted November 10, 2013 These Bulbs http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2X-1156-BA15S-P21W-120-LED-3528-SMD-White-Car-Turn-Signal-Tail-Light-Bulb-Lamp-/330881136838?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d0a0d78c6 To be used in conjunction with these Resistors http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/360449150191?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Don't think you really need to use ones with so many LEDs in them, but I'm sure the more the better. You'll probably be able to find slightly cheaper too if you get ones from Chinese sellers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I look forward to seeing these built up and on... 5x112 mate would have prefered 5x100 they haven't been painted yet I have gone off the idea of colour coding them to car any suggestion's on colour?? they are anthracite at the mo but there are a couple of little bit's of damage to 1 of the barrel's (chippped ) so they need sorting plus they have sealant from when they were together before the dishes are mint fresh from polisher's and I have gold bolt's cheer's again guy's just trying to live up to the history of this car :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
