Post by lochan2 » Thu Jan 24, 2008 6:14 pm

Hi All, just a quickie :) Are the Brake and Tail light bulbs separate on a '95 Bongo ? Interested as I want to replace std bulbs with led's and its snowing outside and I'm on my own so don't want to freeze looking :oops:

Make sure you get good quality LED lamps. I've used cheap ones before in the past, but found them too dim, :shock: so put original lamps back in. :roll:

I wouldn't bother Lochan, the led light will struggle with the red lens...
