Post by roymck »

Spotted these at Beauleau Autojumble . This link takes you to a company that makes LED Bulbs They make a flashing LED bulb that you fit to a trafficator and with no other mods flashes .

Not sure if its 6 or 7mm caps . Would have thought they would know if you mention the trafficator is a Lucas SF80. The manual says bulb is a 256 Festoon.
You going to order a pair Steve?

I've fitted these to my AS3 trafficators (+ added flashing indicators), belt and braces I think ....but with the number of apparently blind and crazy drivers on the narrow Norfolk roads you need all the help you can get.
The "flashicators" are very good and the seller is very helpful.
