Andy Lef Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Has anyone seen or done a side by side comparison of these two SVC rear LED light products? Or (i dread to ask) have an opinion on their 'cosmetic' suitability for the Caterham - which one looks better?1. Round lights in Carbon effect block2. Rectangular Carbon effect blockThanksAndy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon_h Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 Personally I think the round ones look better than those rectangular but the round look much more 'kit car'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted July 17, 2015 Member Share Posted July 17, 2015 I thiink the archives contain some pictures comparing one of those with standard incandescant bulbs.There is a not-too-old thread which tried to gather everything we know about LEDs. I'll try and find it when I'm home.Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The rectangular ones will fit over exisiting mounting holes if you use the SVC carbon (fake) mount and these are 'E' marked too and significantly lighter and brighter than the sprite caravan lights that are fitted from the factory.

old gimmer Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I have the SVC round led lights, but painted the fake carbon to match the car body.Yes they are bright. If you fit a led relay there's no need for the resistors.Regarding their cosmetic suitability, it's my car ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elie boone Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 These are E marked led rear lights but you have to make a big hole in the wing for them to make look good, you can use a alloy "cheese " instead of the rubber one but it doesn't look that good.http://picasaweb.google.com/110171259558975117967/20140901LEDRearLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
