<p>I can imagine a problem with the LED ignition light as it may be
part of a back feed system if I am correct. A tungsten bulb has
far less resistance than an LED bulb so the charging may not work
completely as it should. However the high beam indicator is just a
bulb parallel with the high beam lights and do not present any
problem.</p>

<div>I have read the same thing about not using LED bulbs in the
ignition and high beam indicators. However, I did replace
them in my 66 BJ8 and all seems well. No problems at all.
Very easy to see during the day and at night. The instruments
are also easier to see at night, not bight white but still
easier to see.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">I followed that thread with
interest as my blue Main Beam and green Indicator were
always pretty dim.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I decided to get some of those
little bulbs if I could find them at a sensible price.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I decided to hunt down the size and
reference of the bulb holder and then seek the
appropriate LEDs.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The bulb holder is an E10. Over
here at least one can buy 10 of the short flat ones
for £12:95 inc P&P. The longer ones are a little
more, but only pennies really.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I only point this out as people
have been mentioning prices approaching that for one
single bulb. Just to let you know……</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Now, I’ve put the bulbs in and they
make a noticeable difference to the Main Beam and the
Indicator. The instruments? Not sure until I go out at
night….they were OK anyhow. (I do hate fossicking
around behind the instruments. Always worry that I’ll
detach some vital wire or two.)</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Question……haven’t I heard that LED
bulbs aren’t suitable for the red Ignition light? Why?
Is there a way of making them work there?</p>
