Good morning all. I am planning to fit LED lights throughout my 4.2 and whilst I am aware of one supplier, BCL, not sure whether there are any other suppliers. I would be interested to compare prices so if you can recommend anyone please ? thanks in advance. ( photo for interest only!)

https://www.classiccarleds.co.uk/. They seem to be lower price, though I’ve replaced a couple from them as they have easily broken when removing from housing. Bought replacements from BCL. Pays your money……

Thanks Geoff, thats good intel. I shall get a price from BCL , I do rather like their reverse light conversion I must say. Apparently you cannot see anything other than the standard lease but it has high intensity brake light, red, and white reverse and also fog! I am not intending driving it in fog, but you never know! thx Andrew

I replaced all the instrument, panel and interior lights using https://www.classiccarleds.co.uk/ and found them to be very good. No issues in the three years since I fitted them.

I used ClassicCarleds too. Only issues i had were on the indicators that needed a more modern flasher relay and to switch the left and right indicator tell tales on the dash over, otherwise the left arrow would flash when indicating right, and vice versa 🤔

Not sure but the guy from CCL was really helpful in advising how to sort my problems out. Car now rewired so it was probably an issue related to the previous dodgy wiring.

I just installed CCL units in my 62 FHC restoration. Needed to switch the green and green-brown wires on my new loom for the flasher unit and also swap the indicator bulbs. Otherwise, painless and they look great.
