so If I was to put LED's on the front (which I'm not that keen to do to be honest) and LEDs on the back I just need to et the combo replacement LED flasher can to replace existing one on the car?
I would not even know what a flasher can looks like hence I'm just making sure I have understood you correct:)
I suspect that with a LED flasher can you will not require to change the front lights. The old flasher cans have an oscillator that relies on the resistance of the light globes to set the flashing rate. I suspect although have not checked it for myself that the new flasher cans just use a simple digital timing circuit that is independent of the load offered by the globes or LEDs.
G'day Dullbird :)
The Narva flasher, according to their cattledog 2008/10 state that that one(3pin) and some others are compatable with a mix of LED and incandescant globes :) so you wouldn't have to change the front lights :D
cheers
As far as legalities go, there should be no problem with lights marked ADR Compliant. On the other hand, fitting LED bulbs to existing fittings is almost certainly not legal, and you will find that the suppliers of these mark them "for display, offroad etc" or something similar. Similar situation to fitting HID bulbs to headlights not designed for them.
On the other hand, the only time they are likely to get detected is in the event that you give the authorities an excuse to go over the car with a fine tooth comb. Something that I have never had happen in over fifty years of driving.

funny mick they just look like the ones I was thinking of getting....
are they 200x50x30 if they are they are probably the same.
can I ask what you paid? I was looking over ebay and was looking at about $150 for the pair
From memory, $100 for the pair, including the resistors....plus some air horns...:cool: Road Runner (I think that's their name) are in Riverside Road Moorebank, just down from ARB.Quote:

I have the reversing lights & combo stop / tail.
The reversing lights are heaps bright enough for backing into most dark spots, and I am using the stop function in the red lights for the fog lights.
I did heaps of looking for LED's, even to the point of ordering some from the US, but I wasn't happy with the look, so ended up with the ones from Oz.
thats a really good site there basil those lights do look the same as the ones on ebay however the ones on ebay I'm sure are slightly smaller...
however for the saving (nearly half price) I could put a slightly bigger one on..
now my next question...my series doesn't have a reverse light. Is it possible to fit one activated by the gearbox? or is it a case of fitting one and flicking a switch when your going to reverse.
