Land Rover wiring, led headlights & thermally reactive park lights.

The small electrical fires, dull headlights and the legendary intermittent reliability of Lucas- the prince of darkness
LED lights, new switches and relays.
If you find my videos useful, perhaps you might consider chipping in for some gas money? Im too unwell to work now but I really want to keep bringing you these useful videos www.buymeacoffee.com/tinyhous...

Thank you Eden, I hope that though my experimentation and perseverance you learn some time and money saving hacks

Enjoying the Landy videos

Thanks Tim- there will be another in a day or two, dashboard going back in this weekend. Then a big sandblast underneath and a wee rust repair. Oh the crazy wiring drop outs were caused by a dodgy ignition tumbler- when that is replaced, then I can reliably trace all the other faults lol.

I changed all mine on a 67 2A to LED's 2 years ago. all lights are way brighter, sharper , I can see farther and almost one quarter the amp draw...

Haha...sometimes it's 25% job and 75% looking for tools and bits.

you should measure the voltage under load to get real numbers. i am pretty sure you will see it close to your nine volts if you do so . . .

[@t.h.o.r.]

Oh yes of course! - I should know that. thanks for the wake up. - Read the other guy's comment

I can't believe that you didn't rust treat the light surrounds either, unless you did it off camera of course !

[@t.h.o.r.]

Priority is get stuff working again for a road check Thats why Im not painting it or doing seats. Ill comeback to all the the pretty stuff at my leisure. They only needed a wire brush and a spray of rust converter. Itll all get stripped again for painting.

My console for the gauges are made of fiberglass and the rear plastick binicle i replaced with a metal one i baught from brittish4x4 problem solved because it always brake with age.One do get netal ones one can buy though i am leaving mine fiberglass.

[@t.h.o.r.]

Mine is now fixed!- you can see its repaired because the texture is different on the new plastic I added in. but Im real happy with an afternoon's work. It'll be in the next video in a week when the wiring, rust and demister are all sorted.
