Bright 6 Module Warning Lamps

Im interested in fitting a Bright 6 Module.

As im restricted for room above the steering column i got in touch with the company who make them who gladly gave me the information about the size including the PCB at the rear of the unit, but just wonder if any one has a photo of theres fitted in the dash as even though they are birght they arent that bright.

Thanks

To be honest there was a discussion on here about how they were too bright.

People were looking at fitting resistors and the like to turn down the brightness.

So I don't think you need to worry about it too much!

HTH,

As said - they are very bright - I went out this afternoon in full sunshine, and could very clearly see the symbols. I fitted a resistor in circuit so that I could see the road at night when the full beam warning was lit!

Hi,

We had no problems with fitting ours, to give the wires more clearence on the scuttle, we just dremeled out a U shape above where the PCB fits. Also no problems with brightnes.

They do look good.

I made up a mock of the module today, out of wood and hardboard. It fits quite well too behind the dash. Even made up a template of Fashia Panel to stick to dash.

Spent rest of the day making bracket to support lower steering cowling.
