How to tint rear indicators and add LED bulbs.
-
Decided to tackle the light tinting this afternoon, I took my time probably took me about 5 hours to complete one.
Using prep same as you would for paint, wash. degrease, dry.
So becuase I am using LED bulbs the current draw is alot less so the indicators flash rather rapidly. To slow this down we needed to add inline
a resistor relay, all ready made up these where £4 a pair and the bulbs around £8-£15 depending on which ones you go for. E-tech tint spray was around £7.
These relays get hot so best to have them up against the bodywork
to dissapate that buildup better.
Taking out the reverse white light.
On! still amber after 3 light coats of tint.
Overall effect, happy with that but think only 2 not 3 coats on the reverse light would do as it looks a little darker then the rest of the light.
Could do with a clear coat though, little bit matt in some places.
