1999 Defender 110 Td5 SW Caledonian Blue

LED Brake light and indicator bulbs

I am in the process of adding an additional set of side/tail and indicator lamps to a trailer. So when finished I will have two side / tail lights and indicators on the trailer board and an additional set lower down.

To reduce the loading, I was thinking of fitting in the additional lights, some LED brake / tail and indicator bulbs.

Has anyone done this and can recommend a supplier of LED bulbs? 1999 Defender TD5 110

Try Auto Bulbs Direct. They have a good range and as a rule only sell good quality un-like E-bay. Also have a very good range. I bought some items from them just today. Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

+1 for Auto Bulbs, I use them a fair bit for work

But check the voltage before purchase, or you might end up with 150 of the wrong voltage

Oh yes Steve ! An experience I'd rather not remember

Bought some Stop/Tail light bulbs for work, and didn't even think to check the voltage ! Oops

12v bulbs just ain't gonna work in a truck

Cheers chaps, I will have a look at both sites.
Am I right in saying that the LH and RH stop/tail bulbs each have there own fuse? 1999 Defender TD5 110
