To be fair they come to me at work when the hammer won’t make something move. It’s a genuinely impressive amount of light it throw out. More than enough after a night time MTB and have to get the bike in the boot and get changed myself.

Is there wiring for it as well? Might fit another then! Not that it’s needed!

EBay led light - this is what I have now. Plug and play replacement. FYI it’s a very snug fit!

When I swapped mine out for an LED unit I don’t remember seeing any clips. From what I remember is was just a plastic tab at each end. Given the cost of them, I’d look to replace with an LED unit. I can actually see what’s in the boot when it’s dark out now.

Went out and found a couple of local lanes before the weather set in. The car has now picked up a few scratches on the panels I’ll need to get sorted though.

Potentially. Had it done about 5 months ago, and no problems since it was fitted. I don’t know when/if the others were done so I’d presume one of the others has failed.

Replaced a rear light bulb today.. and the car thanked me by throwing another ABS fault error. Changed the NS front previously.. so a 33.3% chance to guessing the next one.

Went for a bit of a drive today. Went up Cheddar Gorge and then found a byway to adventure along. Lovely views.. forgot it was half term here though, lots of kids darting out into the roads 🤦‍♂️

Oil and filters for mine today. I’ve got some glow plugs and spill off pipes to go on, but there’s a weather warning for rain later today down this way - don’t fancy that rolling in while working away

So the lenses and coloured parts are able to be separated? I’d much rather give them a clean than just spend money!

Thanks all. The ones I’d seen elsewhere were costing a lot more. I’ll take the ones in the link! Thanks!

Morning everyone. In my ever continuing quest to make this 160,000 mile P38 a somewhat presentable example my attention has now turned to my tail lights, as you can see in the attached image there’s some filth settled to the base of the light. It’s not external as I’ve tried wiping it off to...

Had to use the P38 as Thunderbird 2 and go and collect my pregnant sister from work as she was flooded in and needed to get to an antenatal course. Passed a lot of stricken hatchbacks and crossovers, didn’t even break a sweat motoring through. In other news, the tabs in the centre cabin light...

The lights on the P38 are some of the better I’ve used. Loads better than the Volvo V50 I had prior. When I had a bulb go I replaced with these: Phillips bulbs

6’6”, size 13 feet with very long legs. I’ve got no issue fitting in and using the pedals. Arguably the one car that I can actually fit in..
