AndySheldon Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Hi @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO, it's before IVA. Is that a problem? Do I need to use non LED for IVA and then upgrade? I was trying to save a bit on money...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rednop1 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 If you buy the correct led lights they are suitable for iva so you only to buy them once Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Hi @AndySheldon as @Rednop1 suggests, fit the correct lights once The reason for my pre/post IVA question is I updated my FW rear end in Dec 2019 and removed the factory reflectors etc. Hence my suggestions would be different for post IVA etc. The attached PDF shows the Hella part numbers and how I presented for IVA and how it looks now. I bought all my upgrade LED units from Amazon. Sometimes they are on a long lead time and some times the price varies up and down. When I did order those items with a long lead time, they did fall and arrive a lot sooner than first published. Opie Oils also stock them too: https://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-3367-hella-lighting.aspx We may be able to help each other out! I've got the items I've removed (i.e. the RED outer reflectors and RED Inner Reflectors)- They are as new and will pass IVA. They are - How about £15 for all 4? (plus postage). I'm also about to remove my outer LED Clear/Lens Stop/Tail combined to update to match the inner pair I fitted in Dec 2019. These again are as new (provided by Westfield with my kit). The only reason for changing is the design has changed very slightly and being a perfectionist, I want them identical and I know they are different!. How about £60 for the pair and I'll throw the two indicator lamps with Amber LED's in for free?(plus postage). I'm also about to remove the outer clear indicator lamps. These again are as new and as provided by Westfield. I fitted LED lamps to them prior to IVA (decent items from Autobulbs Direct) and they've been great. The lens covers are slightly smoked and don't match the clear LED units I fitted in Dec 2019. I fully understand if you want to buy new items, however as these are LED, they will last a very long time etc. Make sure you only use very short stumpy screws as you can pierce the back of the items and moisture can get in- Don't ask me how I know. I'd even suggest to file the point of the self tapping screws to reduce the chances of it too. I've just added a 3D printed pocket to sink the number plate light into the bodywork so it can't be seen from behind. I'll update my build thread later with details: FW Rear light LED upgrade Hella Part numbers.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
