Hey Girls and Guys..

As above really lol.. Have had enough of my pants reverse light bulb and was thinking of upgrading to the LED equivelant but have heard that they may not be road legal..

Although i can see that people have been changing theirs for a while now but just wondered if it was actually Legal to do!!

Cheers - Phil

Yes there legal.

Although led lights tend not to be as bright as other types.

I have found a company that do halogen conversion kits/bulbs for the reverse lights, when i get round to fitting this to my motor i will post a pic.

They are fitted to a lot of high end motors so should be pretty good.
