I tried recently to assemble what we knew about LEDs that might work on a 7: model, e marking, price, comparison with conventional bulbs and opinions. There just weren't enough data to make this useful, but I expect that to change...

Description at CTEK: The XS 0.8 is CTEK’s smallest 12V charger...
Battery capacity 1.2–32Ah up to 100Ah for maintenance What's the biggest battery you'll ever want to use it on?
Which connectors are included? They can add another £5 to £10.
Price looks reasonable. Have a look at Accumates and Optimates. When I last looked they were cheaper than CTEKs.
Jonathan
I wouldn't.
What track are you at, and have you been round begging tools and help from other participants? It's very likely someone will help.

I can't find a definitive answer in the archives.
Have you 'phoned Caterham?
The Avon site has a list of dealers but their depot in Melksham appears to be closed at weekends.
This thread suggests Richard Young might be able to help.
If it would help to drop the car near Oxford while you find a tyre please ask: we can store it off the road. We're 10 minutes from Junction 7 and there are some car hire depots nearby. I'm sure others might be able to help with that as well.

I'll run another round of this if I get enough interest. We'll probably need about 50 to make it worth getting them from China again.
Costs last time were: £175.60 for 30 = £5.86
Envelope £0.24 whether it's for one or two
Postage £5.20 whether it's for one or two
Total £11.30 for one
Total £17.16 for two
Total £28.46 for three
Total £34.32 for four Photos of various ways they've been fitted earlier in this thread.

Quoting Englishmaninwales: I know the archive is useful but...sometimes it is quicker and more simple to just ask the question and get a useful answer inside 1 hour compared to trawling through 52 threads in the archive, some of which are over 10 years old.
I suppose it depends on how much time one has to spare and how up to date the advice needs to be It takes about a minute to search the archives and see if any Subjects look useful and open them: Possible future improvements to workflow and how the technical wiki will help.

Are you sure that they aren't fitted into threaded fasteners rather than needing a bolt (and access) on the back... ?
Crossed post: SNAP!
