I have the spoke LED rear boards on Jaffa 911- maybe not road legal but super bright - he does them for 914 too

So the photo looks good Keith, & I like to be seen too - are you happy with / feel safer with these lights? Looks like an easy upgrade, but there's been so much mixed feedback on LEDs, just not sure whether this will be the answer.... your views much appreciated.

To be honest, I can't see any negatives whatsoever. When you compare the tail lights on our old cars with those of 'moderns', well, there is no comparison. It's a simple plug and play that requires no modifications whatseoever, so if you feel they're not for you then you can always revert to the old candles.

Nice one - agreed, it's so easy to change and the outlay isn't expensive really, what's to lose.... thx for the advice.
