Series 1 Indicators

I note in the serice manual it talks about front side lights being extinguished when headlights are on (only for North America). Leaving the sidelights available to "flash" when turning.

Also I bought 2 of those L488's from http://www.morrisminor.uk.com/ - quite a good price and quick delivery - They have white red and orange lenses too.

Sorry to hear of the nerve damage, but good that it's on the mend.

It looked pretty ugly when I saw it at the Abercrombie River!

Which means Australian ones did, since they were fully imported - but I don't know of any in existence here today, and I am not sure the numbers ever got into double figures!

If I find anything out I'll let you all know.

ps. I heard of a guy paying to have indicators fitted only to find out later everything was already there !

My 1957 107 wagon had Land Rover installed indicators installed, this consisted of a separate loom running the front side light with dual elements and two little orange lamps fitted to the rear just above the pork pies.

According to my new Series 1 book, all Series 1 wagons, not just the Tickford ones, had the front blinkers using dual filament sidelights and the rear ones using the tail lights or rather stop lights. I suspect the little orange lights may have been an Australian special similar, for example, to the pendant lights fitted to the contemporary Chevrolet's horizontal fins.

That is what prompted my thread in the first place - it would seem that no one has the original system still fitted to their station wagons.
