Yup. They are excellent. My trafficators are my only indicators and they make all the difference in terms of confidence and visibility and do not affect greatly the originality as well hidden.

Excellent thank you.
I've just sent an email enquiry.

I have some. Quite happy with the improvement. I did wonder how long they would last if the car was left outside (not the case with ours) but I expect there are ways to seal the trafficator arm against rain.

I've got them as well. The car has been outside since they were fitted. Had no problems so far.

I have them in my Austin 10, makes a big difference to the visibilty of the trafficator especailly at night! I did have one stop working quite soon after purchase and the customer service is very good as he asked me to send back the faulty one and sent me a new pair :D


Too many Minors so little time.....

Is there a bulb number for these? I'm on the other side of the Atlantic.

I don't think there is a bulb number. It appears that the suppliers here in the UK just apply their own internal stock number to them.

Mine came from Classic Dynamo & Regulator Conversions. They make their own LED bulbs. (www.dynamoregulatorconversions.com). Mine are about 6 months old and seem fine. Part/stock number is EA2B. Unlike most LED bulbs they are not polarity sensitive and can be used on either -ve or +ve earth cars.

The Charles Ware LED256 unit shown in the link above, posted by firedrake1942, appear to be pretty much the same but are very slightly more expensive.

There are a few topics in the forum about these. See this post I made a few days ago:
