Sounds great! What channel you watching?

Lol, yours obviously 😂

Perfectly timed? 😆

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos perfect indeed. I sat down for my break and the notification popped up! I work in a petrol station so I'm watching shit all night anyway like, but still 😂 uninterrupted is best

Thanks mate 🤣

Cheers mate

It’s definitely better and easier to watch whilst not fully sober.

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos yes, i have found that 👍👍🍷🍷🍺🍺🥃🥃

No problem, thanks for watching! The bulb codes/quantity are listed properly in the video description too.

Thanks I found that. I’m ordering the second ones you ordered. Found them on eBay. Was wondering if the auxito amber ones would work without flashing fast like yours did as it states they have Built-in load Resistor & IC Driver

@@JAYP4610 quite probably. I think they’re definitely worth giving a go. If you do order those ones and fit them, please do let us know the model/part number of them and if they require a load resistor or not. I’ll add it into the video description.

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos just got them and I can confirm they still flash fast 🤣

@@JAYP4610 that’s a bit of a shitter, looks like load resistors gonna be needed

That stretchy mofo didn’t wanna come off 🤣

Thanks!

Aye, Merc are a bit more complicated cos they have an LCM so can do all sorts of weird shit

Needs lowering and wheels, but then I won’t be able to bounce over speed bumps as easily 🤣

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos haha I always feel like it's about to get some air if I go over 20 over speed bumps in mine!

@@JAYG6390 Some speed bumps are true hell, others are just like driving over a little cloud :-)

Thanks mate. There’s a few sellers on eBay that sell them, can’t remember which one I bought from but type Auxito LED’s and they should come up. This is the white blobs in the number kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qrybhrtpt9mXm3U.html

That car was reasonably modded, but the rear lights always got the most attention at shows. The symmetry is satisfying. 😎

I’ve taken out the red lens so I’ve pretty much done that lol. Only thing is I’ve not put a white LED in the reverse light and changed the wiring, which I could easily do as I’ve wired the bumper lights to work as brake lights, side lights and fog lights.

Thanks Betty ❤️

I considered it. I wouldn’t even need to put a wire across as I’m pretty sure the whole loom to goes through this light anyway. I’d just just to pull the fog wire out of the terminal and stick the reverse one into it. I only didn’t do it cos I went to the effort of fitting diodes to the bumper lights so they work as side lights, fog lights and brake lights 😆

Glad you’re liking the content. I’ve had similar issues when trying LED bulbs in the past, they’re usually pretty wank like the first ones I tried in this video. The ones that worked are from a brand called Auxito. I got them off eBay. Type in Auxito LED and the type of bulb you need and a few sellers do them, and all the ones I bought came as a box of 2. Mine cost about £8 or 9 per pair.

Cost me £11 from ebay, (inflation), I got cheaper ba15s for the fog and reverse, left the indicators as they are for ease... I'm so happy with this mod, wish I could post a video reply, but this isn't TikTok! 😁

Possibly, or just add another bulb and stick it inside the car or some shit. Seen that before on bikes haha. Not sure where the relay is on them, most cars have modules with it all built in with other functions these days though

Just Google for anti hyper flash Leds. You need 4 so expect to pay £20.

If I remember right it’s just a plug but needs a clip pushing to release. Once you fix the fault, it will likely reset itself. Airbag faults usually reset every time the ignition is turned on

Cheers mate. They should outlast the car tbh

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Not sure if it's a good thing or not :D ahah

Due it’s MOT soon. Let’s see how bad it fails first 😂

You can yes.

Is it definitely blown the bulb? The plug into the light as the bulb holders can corrode and give bad connections. This can stop it working and also blow bulbs as vibrations cause it to connect and disconnect over and over again effectively turning the bulb on and off heating and cooling the filament causing it to break.

Hi mate. There’s a few different sellers that do them on eBay. Just type in “Auxito led” and then a few options come up. The eBay listings I bought them from have probably changed by now

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos thank you pal

YES

They are standard C1 rear lights, I modified them tk make them fully silver

Try to avoid it

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Me too

They’re all still good mate, apart from the Philips ones I fitted to the Volvo aaaaaages ago

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos I'm considering fitting some better bulbs to my Fiat I've tried some LED DRLs and number plate bulbs but it pings up as bulb failure on the dash so I'm going to have to stick with the traditional bulbs

@@joebloggs3629 stick a resistor in parallel like I did with the indicator lights. That should work

I will have a look at doing that at some point mate it never even crossed my mind 👍

Nah, it’s red but it’s just a shit bulb and looks orange compared to the vivid red of the decent bulbs lol

Yes LED do have polarity but they are pretty much always correct in this type as the standard bulbs are centre positive. It’s just the 501 type that it matters on and they can just be flicked round 180. Every bulb I bought was supposed to be error free but unfortunately none of them were. I suspect without spending a lot on them I’d struggle to find any that truly were. I forgave the auxito ones for not being cos the light out of them is really good, nice spread in the original lens with decent brightness and good colour. They’re bright but they’re not painfully bright, just about the same as any nee car on the road that has LED tail lights as standard.

Without watching it back I can’t be sure, but didn’t I say the bulb types at point in the video? I recollect explaining about the twin filament on the stop and tail and the others being single and not mattering which way about they go but it was a while ago and I’m not sure now 🤔

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos You did explain how they work at 7:30, however, it's completely my fault for not checking the rest. I just assumed that they were all 1157. I've managed to to a bodge job and snip off one of the pins and they fit in pretty tightly without any issue.

@@brewmyteabag1830 that is a bodge, worthy of this channel 😆

@@StupidBlokeStupidVideos Those Auxito bulbs are bright as fuck as well. We'll see how angry Mr MOT will be soon. Either way mate, great video as always. YES!!

@@brewmyteabag1830 they’re sooooo good aren’t they. And YES

In my country yes

What did you fit? The one ones that I have fitted in my car that will fail MOT are the headlight bulbs, but I just swap them over to standard bulbs for the test, the rest are fine for MOT

To be honest, they weren’t rear bulbs. It was a set of those Philips 200% brighter white, headlight bulbs. MOT tester said they weren’t emitting a bright enough light plus poor light cut off. Great video by the way. 👍🏻😎

@@somerandomname9252 that makes more sense lol

My head is too fat to install one to.

They’re pretty much just a bit of high resistance wire in a glass balloon

Oi! Thomas Edison and countless other spent fooking ages working out how to make these work! Have some respect lol x

"Thomas Edison"! 🤬 Cheating, lying, self promoting, patent stealing . . . Ah, American! You're thinking of Joseph Swan, (might also want to look up why the Americans call an electric torch a flashlight to see how Edison's "invention" stacked up) But I agree, standardised/universal, proven, cheap, reliable and easy 👍 If only you could count on an led 380 P21W5 bulb to be what it says it is and do what it's supposed! 😵

We’ll soon evolve to have gills
