These arrived yesterday and Disco nagged me for hours to get the first set. If you didn't make the Ace Cafe meet, here's what they are like

Looking gooooood - Looks much better than the lexus style ones

Do they come without the carbon effect/real - reckon they would look better coded..........still nice though!

Spotted 'em last night at the Ace Cafe.

Not my taste but very effective and IMHO better than the lexus style on the clasic shape.

I'm confused as to how they light up!!

I assume:

The outer light is the indicator
The inner is the reverse light
The LED ring is the brake light
Smaller ones are reflectors/fog light

So is the LED ring backlit for nightlight??

hmmm..... How much???

The rings are two stage LED. On for lights, much brighter for braking. Also the upper of the two small red lights in the middle also illuminates when braking. The lower one is a reflector.

The indicators would look better with Silvertec bulbs in but Disco was in such a rush to get the out of my hands that I didn't have time to put some in.

The carbon effect is within the plastic that they are made from and this plastic could be painted to colour code the unit, if that was preffered.

Hi Andy

I think the red Silvertec bulb is the best option for the foglight. I've asked the manufacturer to make them with this configuration.

In that case, when my credit card recovers from it's recent battering, I think a set colour coded in deep blue mica will be ordered!

I'm guessing that the little light could be wired up as a foglight!

Or even the offside reverse light and then retain the two small red lights as brake lights! (Now can you get silver bulbs that shine red???)
