How'd you get on DeanC? Interested in your rewiring project. Shame about the offset pins. Were they helpful?
Good stuff. I have ordered two Cree bulbs to have a go at the indicators. The vendor has assured me they are voltage sensing. I made it a condition of sale. I plan a breakdown of the job and wonder if we could link your pics to it?
which reverse bulb did you get Dean?
The one dephead kindly posted:
CREE 1156 BA15S P21W Xenon LED CANBUS REVERSE LIGHT BULB WHITE HIGH POWER 261169683340.
I think Dean used the same as me. Mine were

As an aside I am nearly ready to write up the teardown for the indicator replacement. I sourced a pair of LED bulbs that didn't require a DeanC type dismantling of the bulbs. Paid the price though £15 each but 700 lumens with 10 cree LEDS in them. Watch out for a new thread which I'll link to this one

Good job Dean, looks brilliant. So if the seller sent you the correct reverse bulb then it would have been just a plug and play job?
Sounds good Dephead, I'll be looking forward to your write up as I'm not very good with electrical rewiring and would prefer an easier solution but with same results
Yep. Easy to do in under a minute. My first bulb just had the wrong pins.
Hi AJ It was 2x 50w 7507/BAU15S/581 BRIGHTEST CREE LED AMBER (CANBUS) INDICATOR BULBS Item number 161201053098. But I notice that the seller has none left. However there are others like this out there and you could contact the seller as he was VERY responsive answering my many questions
