[jim_bling]

hi lads and lasses can any 1 tell me if these are road legal in the uk


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...RK:MEWA:IT&viewitem=&item=260126031410&rd=1,1

please reply asap as im tempted to buy

 

[Bence_Fs]

im sure they are legal, someone will clarify in the morning but aslong as you use LED bulbs they should be fine

only thing is that the resistance of the led bulbs is measured in mA, and the car thinks the side repeaters have blown because the resistance is so low. you can buy wigger resistors and splice them into the loom easy enough though

like i said, someone will probably help out more in the morning

If they ahve a red reflector - yes. If not - No.

 

[jim_bling]

thanx much lads a will ask the bloke today about them hopefuly get them thanx again

 

[James]

Yes they have a red reflector on them, you can see that here on my set:

 

[Ems]

They look cool!!

Did you get some?

 

[jim_bling]

reet they are on way and will be fitted straight away anyone near sunderland on here or anyone that works at nissan as i do

 

[mean micra]

Jim_bling, you need to mod the connector as soon as they arrive...

do the cluster side and not the led side connector mode...

basically few wires need switching over... easy really, i dit to my set...

SEARCH button will tell you all you need to know...

 

[tse_adam]

they're so nice, wish they did them for k12 as well. make sure you show us some pics of the finished product!

 

[jim_bling]

will do cheers lads how do a use search new to msc

 

[Ems]

It basicly means using the search bar at the top and typing in a few words relating to the lights. I typed in 'k11 lights wiring', it came up with a few results, and you just skim through them till you find one that has the correct info in. This one should do you;

Am I right in thinking you don't get a fog light with these? If thats true then you might fail your MOT due to not having one.

yeah Wilsonian thats right...the fog light is white as in Taiwan they are not required to have a fog light so instead have two reverse lights

where as the uk require a fog light so u either paint a bulb red or buy one from "ultraLEDS"

hope that helps

[James]

Actually you technically do, the side that has the fog light lights up the part that would be a reverse light so you'd need a red bulb, but that would work fine

Edit: Beaten to it by Napster! Doh! lol

Jim_bling...u will have to do this when urs turn up.

may get you some pics later if rain stops!

when are ur lights arriving?

 

[jim_bling]

so what do a have to do re-wire and change a bulb......?

they arrive sometime this week hopefuly

 

[Napster]

re-wiring the LED lights is standard anyway as they will not work on ur micra k11 otherwise.

the new bulb is required or some red bulb spray to change the right hand lights from a white reverse light to a red fog light :glance:

naps

 

[Napster]
