Re: LED park and indicator lights on a Sovereign bullbar

i went back through my photo's from when i installed the same ones on my arb bar and the only shots i could find of the wiring had the car side of the connection taped up which is a bugger. but from memory when i did it i just put the hazards on and the parkers on and pushed the wires together until the white ones were on and the yellow ones flashed!

am going to do some tidying up one of these days before the GTG, if you haven't sussed it by then i'll let you know when i pull it all out.

Coolies, so the LED's white cables no doubt share the earth, which you mount the the bar obviously ?
And the power from LED's just got to see which one does what when connected haha.. roger. Thanks guys.
Looking forward to the next beach run to christan the beast on sand, yet to get to that part.

Re: LED park and indicator lights on a Sovereign bullbar

Golly, the two earths from your LEDs will go to one of the three existing wires in the loom, not the bar. But i don't remember which colour is which.

Then do as McBain said - twist the wires in place and check that you have the correct one flicking at the correct time...

EDIT: I don't have my car here, so can't check, but if you believe the Ellery manual, the negative wire in the loom is white with black thread. If I am reading it correctly, the indicator should be Dark Green. Start with that and see what happens :mrgreen:

Saw a silver prado in Welshpool yesterday with what looked to be the factory setup, but with LED bright lighting inside...
Looked good

Correct Fishut, thanks mate. Got them finally installed. Made a stuff up with the allowance for the black surrounds, so installed them without. They look cool enough but the end product is why I installed them, those trailer park lights looked shocking.

I found them on the Hella Australia website: http://db.hella.com.au/cgi-bin/catal...w&flmaint=3305
I was quoted $284... They are in stock at Hella Australia according to my local Hella stockist (TJM).

These Brytec BR120AC LEDs are 100mm diameter, so probably a little to big.

And someone selling it in Oz. It looks like a direct replacement with no drilling necessary.

Nice find Andrew, better looking than the original Narva 87280 light.

The LED lights arrived today. They are a completely sealed unit and is a direct replacement with the original Narva light.
Did a quick test across the battery terminals and it looks good. Will have to wire it up and then do a side by side test with voyager4x4 at work.

Wiring is:
White: -ve common
Brown: parker
Green: indicator

Front view


Rear view (can just make out the potting in the hole where the wire exits)

Side comparison
