Just to save someone from wasting their time. I recently got some coloured 286 LED bulbs for changing my dashboard warning lights to LED's as I had to replace my sidelight warning bulb anyway. After changing them I noticed that the indicator warning light was only working for left had turns,so I guess that the polarity switches depending on which way your indicating and LED's being the fickle little things they are don't like that  . I must say though I do like the vibrant blue light of my main beam warning light now instead of the washed out colour it was before  . Baz

You seem to have done a bit of work with the LED's on your car Baz. I wished I'd had a closer look yesterday. It wasn't till I was following you down the road, that I noticed your LED rears.  Looked pretty  mate! Next time I see you I must have a closer look. Good job tho. Iain.

Hope to see you there mate. You'll just be spectating though, right?  I hope to get my car on track, but like we said, am dubious about breaking it. Deffo need to look at my suspension first. Noticed a N/S/F knock yesterday when throwing full throttle at the front wheels. ???wishbone??? Probably only noticing it now, cause I've just got my PRV set right again, and seems I had only been running at 0.7bar ish for the last while. Going to take a wheel off and set about it with a big lever later, hopefully then I'll see what's moving. Iain.

Baz Had the same thing happen to me, it there no way to change the polarity around?

No that`s the exterior bulbs they`re taking about in that thread. I`m meaning the indicator warning light on the dash situated in the rev-counter  . Baz
