who does repairs on mk1 indicator arm tips?

Post by ORX7F »

I recall reading somewhere of a bloke specializing in resto jobs of your old and knackered indicator arms, like chroming, straightening, and fitting a new illuminated tip that actually works. Another fella (but I am not looking for this one) does this job Downunder while fitting LED illumination in the tip. I am after the UK one. Any ideas?

with sound and vision, the resistor sould be around 500 ohms and the led can be any coulor you want. it doesn't matter to wich leg of the LED you attach the resistor. ;)
