cool!
see how there's two close up pictures? one of them shows them horizontal and they look good, the vertical one looks like the red LEDS are orange
and look a bit rubbish. have you got any photos of them fitted to your car?
having said that i should have looked in your archive first. I'll do that now

Haven't fitted them yet, only tested on the bench, so it's unlikely you'll find anything in my archive

I also liked the look of these - but wouldn't you need to add a seperate reflector?

are they e marked and what are the radiused edges like, as you know mr SVA is a little bit keen on this kind of stuff, he failed mine due to the
radiused edge on a reflector then said I didnt need it anyway so I threw it away.

just asked them the question ^ 
isn't there the whole 'equivalent brightness' thing though? lights not necessaritly having to be E marked or something?

I couldn't really find a reflector that would 'go' with this unit. Any suggestions?

ive got these, waiting to be fitted to my car.
i wouldnt risk it with SVA (had proper caterham ones for that) but these are deffo MOT safe for the future.
as for quality, brightness etc they are fantastic, the red is VERY RED and VERY bright and the yellow is very YELLOW and VERY bright, even when all 3
functions are on (side, brake & indicator) they are very clear, oh and did i mention...VERY BRIGHT?!

have you got any more pictures of them? on the 2 photos on ebay, when the lights are off, the red bit looks red, the ellow looks yellow, but in the
2nd picture, the red looks a bit yellow too...
or any pictures placed on the car for size scale perhaps?
