Tourer rear light cluster and LED's
Hi All,
I'm treating the ZTT to a set of brand new rear light clusters, and thought I'd like to take the opportunity to upgrade the bulbs ideally to LED's, or at least to the brightest alternative. Does anyone know of a list of appropriate Canbus friendly LED's or brightest bulbs available? Phil |

Hi Phil,
I offer the LEDs for the tail light clusters apart from ones for the tail light sidelights. Unfortunately haven't been able to find any suitable for the correct brightness as all the ones I've tested make the tail sidelight the same brightness as the brake light. I can supply LEDs for: -The brake lights - The reverse Lights - The rear fog lights - The rear indicators I do these in batches to order, I will be taking orders for the next batch in the next week or two. See my post here from the last batch. https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s...d.php?t=311277 |

Thanks Rick,
Could you estimate when these would be received? Phil |

Hi Rick, first of all, the headlights you sent me many months ago are to be fitted to the 75 Connie Tourer this week!
Focus at the moment is the ZTT Tourer I now have as well. Following experience with the 75, I really want to try and minimise the need to replace the tail lights and front sidelights as they're a pain. Thing is, is there any progress on rear sidelights? I'd really want to do the whole rear cluster and am relying on your experience. I did put LEDs in the front sidelights of the 75 as a trial a while ago but had problems and the "globes" went back in - I have another post running on this LED topic.

Well done sticking to your guns on the brightness issue.
I'll just have to get the best longevity standard tail light bulbs I can find when I fit your set of LEDs. I'll be away from this weekend for 2/3 weeks and internet not good when away. Put me on your list. I use the cars a lot and dread having bulb failure on cold, dark wet night! Johnny BG |
