Ah got it now, no would be too much for me, have never actually seen it done before?? Could maybe work with the smaller led units. Andy

agree Andy, smaller LED lights might work, (something for the future Whistle ) are you going to have clear LED's on the lights above the number plate each side as in your pic they are normal colour ones ?

Stop giving me ideas Big Cry

Twisted have always kept the brake/tails led red lens which I prefer, especially as I am about to add the extra 2 clear lights so the red ones break it up.. All my rear lights are LED from mobilecentre. Andy

lol, did'nt know that twisted did the red ones on the back as 'standard to them' i just thought you might go clear on the back to match the front ones in your pics (would be different for a twisted defender !) lol

Box from Mobilecentre landed this morning.... Went for the worklight first. Mounts nicley onto the rack plate, cable taken along and as with the front spots comes in using one of the rack brackets. Using my last switch for this, only have this discovery top as its something different so i dont get confused Whistle

Got the extra NAS lights fitted... This makes a massive difference, the rear is so much more brighter now and with the big wheel sitting on the rear door you can clearly see what i am doing. All you need for this job is

Masking Tape
6.5mm drill bit
20mm Bi metal hole saw
Marker
Level
Email address for Billy or Tim at Mobilecentre Wink

Poor quality pics i am afraid..

Before:

Test the Loom and lights just in case:

Use a small level to position the plinth and mark up:

Drill Shocked : I treated all the holes with the Alu Primer and then fitted the LR plugs

Look like it was meant to be! I'd pictured the fogs in the middle, not sure why but looks good on the inside. Thumbs Up

Cheers

I went with this setup as the drivers side inner light is less obvious with the wheel, I just wanted the reverse to be clearer as I use it more often than the fogs. Smile Andy

What Is the paint or marks around the holes you cut? Also what are the plugs in the screw fixing holes? I need to do this while replacing my old rectangle fog and reverse with my NAS led lights

Thanks andy Thumbs Up

Hi Andy,
I just use some Wurth Aluminium Primer brushed around the holes, better than nothing I guessed. The plugs are the same ones used by LR, they are square, designed to sit in a square cut out but I did a few tests and they work fine pushed into a 6.5mm hole.

Just a tip on the primer you painted on, primer is porous so it's best to paint or lacquer over the top of it so it doesn't hold water against to metal Thumbs Up Ray

Just going back to the orientation of the reversing/fog lights. Thinking about it more the option you've chosen is a much better idea as it separates the glaring fog light from the indicators. Thus making the indicators easier to see when the fogs are on. Thumbs Up

How did you get the fog electric supply to the other side of the door and vice versa for the reversing light?

Good call. Will probably just brush some lacquer over it as I have some sitting there... Andy

Tim just made me up a loom when I ordered the lights.... Just fed over the cross member and clips on to some other cables there. Andy
