Replace Positioning / Parker Light Bulbs With 2 X T10 LED Bulbs
First by choice and advice from my Mentor (shiney) Remove the Tupperware both sides

NOW its lots easier to get to the little rubber grommet type push in plug.

Now wriggle it out as it's only rubber and will come out easily.
Remove old bulb (globe) insert new L.E.D. bulb (globe)

TEST IT before you put it back in its hole to save redoing it if it is the wrong way around.
REPEAT FOR OTHER SIDE AND YOUR DONE

After putting in the new Narva 150s, blow me down, the RH position light was blown. I've never done the job before and it's supposed to be a doddle pulling out the fitting from underneath with the centre panels removed.
I have the centre panels out for cooling (and I believe it works). I could get the LH one out but there was no way I could get my hand in front of the Stebel airhorn to get the RH one. So the cowl had to come off, with the attendant hassle to having to remove the spot light. Dang, having farkles complicates things!
So the new LED position lights are in. I got the 10 element ones and they look pretty neat. No pix- see them in Port Sorell soon. :grin

I have some of these waiting to go in - should have bought a few more because the car uses them as well.

With that many elements they should be very bright!
