Bought a led smoked 3rd brake light. Got time today to fit it day only to find out it wouldn’t work when I first fitted it. Found out it had been wired wrong so I had to make a connector

Now it works

Hi. Where did you purchase these.
Is the DRL also LED. No issues with fault codes and leds prematurely blowing?

Thanks for the great build thread, I've really enjoyed reading your 'journey'. We also have an ex BG Caddy, done nothing to it other than bulkhead taken out and engineers racking removed from the back. All the best.

Hi Glen
There’s not to much involved in fitting a USB.
I fitted it in about an hour. There is a how to thread on fitting to a fuse box

Stripped my R32 front callipers today so I can get them ready for paint. Decided to have them painted red.

Now they need a good clean.
Then when I get them back I got to work out how to put them back together 😂
