This might be a stupid question but I have just replaced my exterior light
bulbs with LEDs from Joe Parlanti.  The main reason I decided to do this
was because the incandescent bulbs in my rear brake lights were melting the
lenses if I held the brake for very long.

Anyway, my front lights have a smaller clear lens and a larger amber.  When
I turn on my turn signals it is the small clear lights that blink.  I'm a
little confused because the parts catalog lists the amber side as being the
"flasher".  Do I have my front lights wired backwards?

Thanks,
Joe Brown

All,

Looking to see if anyone has recommendations for shops to do a Tiger
(mostly body) restoration in the US?

Basic situation is solid driver showing its age
- ?64 MKI
- Restored by Hampson & Postle in early 90s (then of Sunbeam Spares), took
?Best Restoration? at a STOC event
- Received Dale A?s front end, 5-speed conversion, & Wilwood disk brake
upgrade in 2014
- Driven somewhere between ?regularly? and ?like I stole it? from 1999 when
I purchased it onwards
- Always lived in damp UK or maritime US climates (east coast)
- Now has the usual road rash underneath, some blisters forming under the
paint topside (though no visible rust), some shut lines are not what they
once were, &c.

Cheers in advance

Rick

Joe, you probably do have your lights wired backwards.  I had the same
problem in the rear with brake and signal reversed.  Should be a simple
matter to do the wire switch.  Those lights have a pigtail lead that
connects to the main harness that runs down either side of the engine
compartment.  Connection to the harness is through barrel connectors.  All
you have to do is unplug and switch.  you can do it trial and error or look
up the wire color in the circuit diagram in the workshop manual.
