Has anyone got any broken rear LED indicator units (mk1) that they would like to sell? I'm planning on experimenting combining the indicator and brake light! smile

Thought about this myself but not got the abillity to fiddle with this kind of thing. If you get some units, keep us up to speed with any developments, always worry when braking with such low lights on the Tuscan.

This sounds like a great idea.

I'm in for the mod once you've figured out how to do it.

I have done alot of work with the LED's in my Tuscan and would like to help but changing a flashing yellow light to flashing yellow and red light when turning and braking doesn't seem like the best idea. I do not have a high brake light and i think that a modification that includes a high brake light would be much appreciated however this should not compromise the other signals, eg indicators. If you have an idea to solve this problem please get in touch, Rich

The plan is not to have the brake light flashing! smile I plan on keeping the outer ring of leds as the indicator and the inner ring as a brake light. In the meantime I am installing a strip of red leds in the middle of the bar (like a conventual centre brake light). Mr C
