Smithy1993 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi guys. I am new to owning a discovery 1 and would like to change my regular lights on the rear to led's I am changing all, brake lights, indicators etc etc but i have never really done any wiring in cars and don't want to mess it up but I need to start somewhere. I was wondering if someone could help me with the wiring of the disco, e.g what cables do what. The led's I have are just (live and neutral) any help would be greatful. I have a discovery 1 1994 es auto 7 seater. Cheers Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnarne Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Are you just changing the bulbs ? Then I guess all you need is a pair of resistors for the direction indicators. Or have you bought a set of new lamps with led in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honitonhobbit Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 What he said I did the brake lights and reversing lights but simply couldn't be arsed to do the indicators Worth noting that changing to LED's on a D1 does not comply with C&U regs; therefore in the case of an incident caused by you/your vehicle; you will be at fault in the eyes of the law Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPendrey Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 You'll probably also find the lights in the bumpers (tail & indicators) are the wrong polarity... the -12v is on the body, but most LEDs expect it on the pin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
