I will be interested in some new ones. I have converted my original for four tail and four brake lights but of course only look nice when on ! So can you still get afterburners ?

Corin,
See my profile for blended rear lights. £1k at Central TVR or think was about £450 for LE type.

Hi Scott
quite simple if you have a soldering iron ! Simply add the same two filament bulb already used, solder two wires onto the bulb and drill small hole in the holder, then back in to housing, then wire up in parralel to the other two filament bulb. You will need a diode to stop the brake lights flashing the side lights and another to stop the brake light coming with the fog light.Actually sounds quite a fiddle now !! Let me know if you want more details, probably not on here, dont want to bore tooo many ! A have a pic of all "5" brake lights.

David,
Personally I'm in no hurry at the moment and more worried about you getting your tasks mixed up with the chain saw, the wood and the chickens.

I have removed the amber filter from the standard rear lights and fitted SilverVision bulbs (common mod). This gives a solid white stripe between two strips of red.

I'm also going to use subtle quantities of tinting spray to make the red bits less red.

When I did this before (before Nova man decided he needed a much closer look and ran into the back), the result were most pleasing.
