I put a 18w in instead off the 2w its made a huge diffrence

I also used a double tube fluoro from Repco... very bright, more light than you could need for the back.
I fixed it to the rollover bar, and hard wired it, with a switch.

I have one of these in my Lux and it is brilliant!

Narva part # 87340
Fitted straight up where the standard one went with a couple of holes drilled though the plastic base using the standard one as a template.
Also hooks up to the wiring same as a standard one so you can have on/off/door using the switch on it.

In my Sierra I used a brake light. The red light doesn't effect your night vision yet is light enough to read maps etc.

ill get you some pics of my mates zook. he has 4 leds in a rounded piece of perspex (one in each corner of the beast. he made me some up and they look sweet. mine are yet to be installed.
i also picked up a rechargeable 12v LED light. it is great! runs off 12v or 240v (adapters included) or wirelessly. it also has magnetised brackets for it to clip into.
next time i am round ill show ya.

[tweak'e]

anyone where you can get led replacement bulbs for the oblong interior light fitted to most vechiles ?

dosn't need to be bright, a red one sounds good to.

I have the 2nd one down and its awesome i think i payed about 20 bucks for it http://www.narva.com.au/Truck-Trailer_31.html

mate heres an idea

jaycar has kits for festoon lights (interior), you still youse the same light fitting dont have to drill anything

you just use the metal end caps off your old lights and solderin the leds and a resitor and presto

awesome led light,,ive got some in the paj

ill be putting up pics later tonight,


ps you can also get premade ones from jaycar for a bit more $, if ya not that handy with a solder

thank you ! just what i was looking for

[GUJohnno]

I put LED's in my STD Nissan GQ light and the results wern't that great as there isn't much of a reflector behind it.

[fj40v8diesel]

if your still keen on using led's check out this site,
http://www.ledshoponline.com/led_lightbar.htm
also repco have a range of leds for trailers etc which i have used the side/clearance white/clear light in my camper as well, with good results.

cheers.

[Bitsamissin]

Yep thats what I did.
Got the 31mm festoon LED lamps from Jaycar for the Paj.
They fit in the existing lights I had to bend the holders slightly for them to fit but no probs.
The Paj has 3 (2 front & 1 rear) and the interior is bright as now (white light).
The LED globes were about $15Ea from memory.

where can you buy narva products etc ?.. do they have shops at all ? Or can you buy it all online via the narva website ?

[macca81]

tjm 4wd megastores stock some narva stuff... apart from that im not sure, check the website, it might have dealers/stockists listed on there

[jet-6]

LED"s have come along way, damn 2 LEDS on a 31mm feston, mine have 12! Ebay is the only place to look!
