Noeld30 Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 Well basically i want to re con the whole thing. The paint is flaking off and light coming through the silver part. Also one of the bulbs is blown. Thinking of replacing both with L.E.Ds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrisK Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thanks mate for the link had a look seems really good what his done although unsure how I would do it myself maybe trisk should do alittle money making scheme out of it and make a few 👍🏻 I just refurbed a standard one. So it would have to be a part exchange basis. And so many are broken (possibly beyond repair) I don't know how long that would last Quote Link to post Share on other sites

roachburger Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I replaced mine for l.e.ds and sanded off what's left of the green paint .. simple and works way better, I started a build thread years ago on here there are pictures on there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Do you remember what leds please roach as I'm interested in doing this too 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Noeld30 Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 Good idea! I might try that too. What will you use for the tint? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TrisK Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Good idea! I might try that too. What will you use for the tint?I just used vinyl. I had to double up on the backing so that it didnt bleed through Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Good idea! I might try that too. What will you use for the tint?Think you can just get the tint of eBay mate like headlight tint or window tint in different colours I just used vinyl. I had to double up on the backing so that it didnt bleed throughThat's a good tip thanks trisk 👍🏻 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noeld30 Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 So i decided to go the vinyl route. Know a guy whos into his cars that works in that business left it in his capable hands. Going to try some green L.E.Ds from ebay to iluminate it also. Thanks for the post lads ☺ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
