d1 front indicator two bulbs?
« on: September 15, 2010, 20:33:42 »
I replaced the damaged front right indicator on the 97 disco earlier. The replacement was non genuine (bearmach), I was puzzle by the original having an unexpected additional bulb fitting wired up. The bulb is tiny and right in outer corner - the replacement hasn't no such thing. What was it for?

Wasn't that for the 5w sidelights for non UK spec models?  Think it was US/Japan?

 :dunno: I don't think the truck was a grey import as it has some paper work and was bought and serviced in London from new I think, but it is an auto which often where foreign market. So they didn't all have them then?

I'm sure I've seen a few of these on the road.  In the US they are called cruising lights and come on with sidelights so perhgaps they are just for export spec.

I had a better look-see and they appear to be a lame adage by a previous owner, they did come on with side lamps - pretty pants so have disabled.
