Double filament bulbs
« on: February 09, 2016, 03:34:24 pm »
Will double filament bulbs work in a single filament holder?.
Can't remember if they do but so none may know?.

Thanks

Nope!  Which particular bulb are you looking to replace?

Tbh whatever I can in the rear like I did to the tt as theyll be a lot brighter then.

I'm in the process of engineering a holder up  :signLOL:

I bought the some red led bulbs in error but glad I did and I also have some cree led bulbs in white but not sure if they will throw a dash light on?
All done and they do work in single filament holders after all. :smiley:


Just rigged it's together with two gold plated spade connectors and some wire as I wanted to test this myself.



Before


After although it's the reverse light  :ashamed:
