Guest Boywander Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) My bulbs have gone on my 94 import supra 3rd rear brake light mounted in the boot lid below the spolier. Can anyone help where I can purchase new bulbs, or strip? I have not removed yet to see if they are a strip or individual bulbs. Thank you in advance for any answers.

DodgyRog Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Its a strip, try Keron 07769975299, he did have a couple. I am in the same boat, but have decided to just have it removed and smoothed over:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikbiomed Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Its a strip, try Keron 07769975299, he did have a couple. I am in the same boat, but have decided to just have it removed and smoothed over:) I have just done mine. I had a few stages go out ( 4 LED's per stage) If one of them goes out in the chain then they all go out in that stage. finding out which one has gone is a simple task of using a digital voltmeter and seeing when the voltage has gone. Then take apart a cheepy LED brake light bulb as they have loads in, and replace faulty ones with them. You may be better off finding out which ones have gone replacing them with one of the outer stage LED's then replacing a whole stage with the new ones. You may need to change the value of the surface mount resistor also to even up the brightness etc. Alternativley you could buy a replacement for I am sure 20 quids and save yourself the hassle.

georigg Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Worth having a look at http://www.ultraleds.co.uk They do a whole range of LED lights including rope, waterproof and 12" and 15" multi LED strings. Rgds George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Sorry to bring this back from the dead. I'm just about to change my LED strip and wondered how to get to it? Do I just gently yet forcefully remove the plastic covering (as there are no apparent screws) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 now thats off. How do I get to it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraShaun Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Its held on by two nuts, which you will need a deep socket to undo. I can remember what size they are though, I think around 10 / 12mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Cheers mate, they were 10mm. All done now. Got all my LED's working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Slater Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Cheers mate, they were 10mm. All done now. Got all my LED's working Sorry to wake this one up AGAIN.... Theres a few LED's (about four) on the way out on my rear brake strip - any suggestions on where i can get reps? Also just had a look at the boot cover on mine but i cannot see any kind of release catch / screw to pull it off to get at the light strip? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
