and the glue is a bastard to get off - took mines off a fortnight ago and the paintwork underneath was faded to hell underneath the lacquer, ended up having to stick the strips back on again

guy called cobra148 shud b able to sort u out with the led bulbs...

www.crazyleds.co.uk and www.ultraleds.co.uk are also very reasonable

I have a dislike of LED sidelights. They have a habit of shining very little light onto the reflector. The ones with some LEDs mounted on the side, as well as the front of the bulb may work better though.
