Tell Tale conversion to LED

[AJSGSE1990]

Hello, am struggling to find the spec of the Tell Tale lights, as far as I can see the bulbs are T5 but the holders come in all sorts of sizes. The base is 12mm which is a T.47 apparently. Has anyone bought from these peeps?

The little twist bulbs holders that light up the dash indicators such as brake warning, indicators, and low battery etc. I can find the bulbs themselves but not the lamp holders as I cannot find dimensions of the products sold.

Cheers.

A word of warning about the indicator light: current flows through it in opposite directions depending on which side you are indicating.
This is fine when you use a bulb, because it works in either direction.
A LED only works 1 way though.

Absolutely, thank you. I am doing a full rewire with PDMs so at the moment only really need those plastic holders. I might just end up using push through 8mm units, next I need to try and frost the LED bulb to get them a bit more diffused.

I’ve used Classic LED many times a few years back - decent quality and engineered in Uk by the owner. Probably the only place I’d go for LED conversions.

Purchased and they fit perfectly.
