Hi Adam, what a handy and on perfect time video. Between Zwift rides ! I’m working on my 850 MKIII next is to replace de speed lights and I was going to do with regular ones but I have to look at this LEDs to do the job (hope I can fins them around here), thanks !
Hi Adam, looks flash! Not something I thought of doing until now...will get around to interior mods after I sort out my long list of electrical gremlins😕
For the turn indicator warning bulb, it might need to be a bi-polarity type LED, to allow current to flow either way through the circuit and still give illumination (like a regular incandescent bulb).. These are quite common to get now if needed.
@@Thecarislife Depends on the signal wiring. I learned this lesson from upgrading to LEDs on classic motorbikes (Norton & Triumph). The single turn signal warning lamp has to pass current one way for left turns and the other way for right turns. A standard LED only flows in one direction. Bi-polarity type works fine. Not sure what you have on your mini.
Hi Adam, great job, very impressive. I'm looking to do this to my Mini too now. However, I can't find the reference to your LED bulbs on Amazon. Would you mind publishing a link? Many thanks!
www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07NFB7YJ9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_ivhyFbA0ZA9Z1 They are the ones I used in the speedo. The others I can't be sure will be the same as yours as I have replacement bulb holders in my oil and temp gauges
Great video mate, but the time on your watch is wrong. At 3.55 into your video your watch said 11.02 when it was infact 20.19 in the evening. I know this as I checked my watch and my grandfather clock at home.
Thanks Mark. I haven't started the engine yet. Still not reconnected the oil pressure gauge. I hadn't thought about that lol. At least with the gauge I can ignore a dim light
Hi Adam, I was just wondering what year your Mini is? I've just finished installing my centre speedo and it didn't have the nice plug-in to the main loom yours does. I had to deal with all separate wires which was a real pain. My Mini is a 1975 Canadian Mini 1000. I wish I'd seen your video before installing my speedo.The LED are so much brighter. Cheers!
Fantastic uograde to add to my list. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent mate Definitely on my to do list! I can’t ever see when I’ve left my indicator on!
Ha. I didn't do the indicator. But it's much better

. It's hard fitting in working on the mini between rides.
Nice upgrade, liking the painted bonnet. Good to see you’re enjoying the car after the mods to the engine👍
Thanks James. Pretty pleased how it came out
Massive difference great little update pal
Thanks mate. I need another project to get stuck into now 🙄😁
Made a massive difference, I'll have to think about doing that to mine. 👍
Do it. I'm very happy with how that turned out
Great update Adam, looks loads better
Thanks Paul

I still have a lost of 'have to do' jobs but the wants are more fun
Must do my dash bulbs too
Omg the actual Paul p watched my video. 😍
😂😂 of course !! A bit late but I’ve been binge watching lots of TH-cam today !
I love led lights 👍
I want to change more on the car in the future

I hadnt even thought of that. I'd only considered the resistance part of the circuit. Thanks

yesterday i was wondering if it possible. thanks for the video
No problem. Nice little upgrade I think
@@Thecarislife did the same finally check my channel.

I'll have a look to see if I still have it. I used two types. One for the speedo and another for the oil pressure and temp gauge

@@Thecarislife Fantastic! Thanks for the speedy reply!
@@Thecarislife Thanks Adam! Do you know if these bulbs have resistors built in to them?
Im sorry i dont know

😂😂😂😂😂 This comment wins all of the comments
Does your oil light glow as mine did nothing wrong with pressure switch may had a slight earth leak? 👍👍 bonnet looks fab and your looking good 😉

Adam, The LED bulbs makes a huge difference i see the P/N above where did you buy them, Cheers Dave
I got them from amazon. I've no idea of the quality but time will tell u guess.
How many bulbs did you need overall?

Cheers midge. My mini is a 1977. It's quite a mixed bag of mk3 and mk4 parts so the plug may have come in with mk4?
