    Has anyone here checked the original flasher unit in a 1995MY D1?
    Is it 3 or 4 pin?
    Does it have a part number on it?
    Thank Scouse.

    I have just pulled out my flasher unit and it is a YWT10003. As you say it is a 3 pin.
    So all this time I was thinking that the previous owner put it in as a way to stop the bullbar indicators from flashing the trailer dashboard light and it is probably standard.
    My HR towbar is definately aftermarket as the trailer harness was wired in with scotchlocks into the LHS taillight with the RHS indicator being wired into the RHS bumper light. A bit of extra work since they could have just used the factory trailer loom (which I've since rewired it to).

    An interesting note is that it has this written on it:
    21wx2 + 5w + 1.2w
    MAX 21wx4 + 5wx2 + 1.2wx2

    So does this mean the side lights are only 5w? As it would overload the unit if all six indicators were 21w (when using the hazards of course as indicating only uses 3 lights at once).

    Yes, the repeaters on the guards are weaker than the front/rear indicators.

    Exclamation

    Hi all,
    This has been covered hundres of times in the Pommy websites. Most just get clusters from an 89-93 or 96-98 and bung em in. The wiring loom already has the brake light on it. THEN, ya need to get the 96-98 flasher relay from LR and all will be perfect.
    The legislation was "to ensure that 2 tail lights and both L+R indicators (for Hazzard warning) are visible with the rear door open"

    I cam across a guy on ebay selling rear pillar lights with the indicator's saying that all the wiring is there already for the indicator's and that it is just a matter of bunging them in and away you go.

    But I did come across a UK website selling conversion kits and i did make an inquire on them about what is in the kit and all I got back was the pair of lights and a new 4 pin relay to replace the 3 pin relay nothing else.

    UPDATE : Just scored myself a pair of rear pillar lights for my landy from ebay picking them up tomorrow hopefully.

    Ok I found the guys in the UK who are selling the kits.
    SIMMONITES LTD

    I can tell you after I asked if they could just sell the kit to me without the lights they stopped replying to my emails great costomer service from the UK. But from what I got in the emails sounds like only two items the lights and the flasher unit.

    fitted rear indicators up high on my D2. amber light bulbs in place of the clear reverse bulbs. ran twin core cable from the original indicator in the rear bar. fed indicator power into the amber bulb up high and the reverse signal back down the other core of the twin to a pair of reverse lights fitted under the rear bar. now have very bright indicators and reverse lights and all for the cost of about $20 in some amber bulbs and cable

    Damm Ritters are quick first thing this morning at 8am they arrived and I didn't relise how small the starter motor is for a V8i ?

    Well had a look at the lights this evening and nope you can't just plug them in like I was told from a guy from the UK selling the kits so I guess there disco's were wired with one harnes across the range unlike us here there not.

    I think all I have to do is get power lead to the globe and it should work ?
