Quick trip to Halfords and a 5 quid tin of green spray tint later....

 

[Ant]

does the green bulb work then? my red precut dots arrived (which are a bit s**t tbh think tinting the entire light be a better option) but they flash pure red with the normal bulb :roll:
any chance of a pic

 

[tartan-ninja]

And they flash red with green bulbs...back to the drawing board...[CRYING FACE]

Been there done that!

Is the spray tint the same deal?

 

[Ant]

aye think i'm going flyeye my front / rears

also applying tints or film of any kind is not my wheel house, stupid fiddly stuff doesn't suit my brute force approach

Buy these... They ship to the uk if you ask! Then just tint the brake light ring red like I've done and any others have too

sorry fella just realised that was my fault, i had a few windows open and pasted you the wrong link, should've been one for p21w 382 green led not the 501's

Not to worry mate....going down the fly eye route ordered it last night.. :0)

 

[Ant]

lol same happened to me, green 501's arrived thought "f**k sake"
ordered fly eye kit yesterday so hopefully arrive tomorrow

Fitted mine this morning, might have to order another kit and redo the driver side, got a sun shower halfway through the install, if it gets wet at all it won't stick ended up sitting with a coat over my head to get it done.

not hard though good result pics in my thread

Laminex is the best way.
Over a year on and still looks same as the day it went on

I had red tints on it but it flashed pure red so it was a non starter MOT in Northern Ireland can be a proper ballache, it's not like the mainland you can only get it done at government run test centres so they tend to be sticklers:/

 

[Beetlegav]

Green bulbs sorts that out buddy

yours doesn't seem as dark as mine or something, maybe just the car colour
quite like the way mine have turned out i'll try get a shot with the lights on at night (haven't done the third brake light as it's getting replaced, most of the leds are kaput)

Beetlegav did you need to change your Bulbs or was it ok?
