Thanks all for the confirmation of these lights being pants.
It is a shame because I like how they look on the Kobra.
Craig thanks for the positive about the car. I’m still pleased with how it has turned out.
Steve (jag) I have gone through a few sets too. Buying cheap and buying twice is the std with them but bloody shouldn’t be.
Kon I have considered LED bulbs but it’s the light fittings fault that the connection gets lost when the car goes over a bump and loses the earth (cheap plastic fitting).
So my plan now is in action to replace the landie lights with Lucas L488 copies. Nice metal fittings and glass lenses. I’m not so keen on the lamps’ shape compared to what I have but have looked at the alternatives and for my build are the favoured model. They are not std figment on the Cobra but hey, my build isn’t one. It’s a tribute.
I’ll take before and after pics for completeness. I will be flogging chrome rings that bling up the landie lights when all is done.
Dave
