Auckies Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Hi Has anyone fitted these to a UK 2005 roadster and know where to get them from? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyM Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I fitted them on the front..long story short.. it went tits up due to bad workmanship and ended up sueing the company. Rears that I have seen work and look absolutely mint were done by Zleds in the US and cost BIG bucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam B Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 http://www.homemade-circuits.com/2013/03/sequential-bar-graph-turn-light.html I have been looking at this, incorporating leds into standard lenses. Was behind an Audi the other day, love theirs. Ebay has a few options. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-16LED-Universal-Sequential-Switchback-Daytime-Running-Strip-Light-Turn-Signal-/172283447503?hash=item281ce4c8cf:g:8tsAAOSwbsBXleLq http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Headlight-Retrofit-Switchback-LED-Strip-Lights-w-Sequential-Dynamic-Turn-Signal-/262546055503?hash=item3d20f6e14f:g:Wp0AAOSwzaJX2TXY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I personally love the new style LED indicators, brake lights, headlights etc etc we see on new cars, however, they look awful on older cars. They don't suit the styling of 10 years ago and look like cheap and nasty Ricer add ons. The one exclusion may be the front reflectors, where if done right, can actually look well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auckies Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Hi. Thanks for the replies. I saw the ones available from USA or Taiwan, tempting but expensive if it went wrong. Tried a Head up Display and that nearly set fire to the car. You would think with all the Z'ds in the UK some styling firm would do them.

Strudul Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Not a fan of the rear ones on the Z, they look too... arcade-y(?) These front ones though... Edited February 9, 2017 by Strudul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my Zed on you tube..sadly the **** who did the work made a complete f@#k up of the job and I ended up having to sue him. Shame because otherwise it would have looked fantastic 😣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auckies Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Hi. I like the front indicators aswell, on the same colour Z'd as mine. Now I know how easy it is to ask questions on here I am sure I will be back. Tyres are next on the list, and cruise control has stopped working!

Oven is one method.. there are other ways. I have done it with rear MR2 lights in the past. That bit I am ok with.. it's the electronics/ wiring I am useless with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
