Grandmaster Flatcap Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 Yes, sorry chaps I meant to update but got distracted by the insanity at work. The stop/tail bulbs I linked to DO NOT WORK - do not invest!The indicators bulbs work a treat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2TKY Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 As above, the indicators and relay are a massive improvement. Thanks Now just to sort the stop n tail lights. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmaster Flatcap Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 Not sure JK. They did the tail bit very well, but refused to do the stop bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted April 5, 2016 Member Share Posted April 5, 2016 Is that testing while it's in the bulb holder... and have you tried that circuit with an earth to the shell and touching a wire from the battery to the terminal?Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonyH Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Re. the reflective tape, I have used the black reflective stuff before, I used to have strips on the leading edges of the front wings. It was very visible in flash photography but I never tested it by e.g. sitting in another car 100 yards away in the dark and seeing how visible or not the strips were compared to the Seven's headlights.Note you can also get reflective adhesive vinyl in other colours including red, should you be wanting to add it to the rear of your car.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300772011310?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2648&var=600055717718&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AITPreviously I have used this type of vinyl in small pieces on a bicycle, although again I never rode behind my own bike to see how visible it was in small flashes.

AntonyH Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 ...as for the lights, as others have suggested, I just run with dipped headlights on at all times.For the rear, as also elsewise pointed out, the rear lights are shockingly bad and I did a wholesale replacement last year: http://www.lotus7.club/blogs/better-rear-lights-projectI've recently added a high-level brake light too, although not given it a road test yet.
