LED - **Exterior** - Parker, Number plate, Reverse & Fog

[Kekotic]

Parkers... I have to remove my battery to get at the left one don't I. Plus the air guide to get to the right one. Happy to be told I'm wrong?

I hope you are happy?

Angle your hand the right way after undoing the window washer filler neck, and you can reach the parkers with the stock battery....as big as it is, a simple twist and pull will do to remove the parker.
I also used to undo the battery from it's housing originally, but now I can manoeuvre my hand in such a way as to change the parker on the passenger side without unfastening the battery.
As for the drivers side it's impossible to do without removing the air guide, but that takes all of 30 seconds to completely remove so it shouldn't be an issue.

Bahaha. Yes, that makes me a little happy. I'll see if I can squeeze my (non-Asian) girly hands into that gap. (that's what she said?)

Yeah the air guide is an easy one. The battery thing put me into a CBF mood though. Will give it a crack this week.

I need to take the back grey cap off the passenger side head light to be able to reach the parker, it gives a little bit more manoeuvrability

Sorry to interrupt the thread..

Public shout-out to LEOOO !

Thanks heaps for your help with recommeding led's for my parkers, fogs and number plate.
Great price, quality and service !

They look great and match the stock zenons perfectly, exact look i was after.
Cheap and easy mod to do yourself, definitely worth it.

Will hit you up for something for the boot and glove box next.

Soon i will have 5W Cree LED reverse light .. for sedan and wagon

Once i get them i will do a comparison between the 6W & 5W Cree and 15w HID reverse light on the liberty.

Is it possible to get different coloured LED foglights (yellow) for post facelift libertys without going down the HID route?

hey George ...

if you want yellow light and dont want to go HID then get some of the japanese yellow halogen bulb ! they pretty good.

Many thanks Leo.

In mid June you supplied me with LEDs for the parkers, number plates, reverse lights, dome light and boot (LED strip). Over the last two months I've gradually been installing these suckers and I'm now very happy with their appearance! I think there's no such thing as too bright for the parkers though - if these ever fail I might try the next level of brightness - or forget about them and hit you up for DRLs if I can be bothered with the wiring work required (given it took me two months just to get all these suckers installed, what do you think the chances are :-p)

The boot light in particular is great. The one strip, carefully placed, provides brilliant illumination to the boot and a bit outside the boot. The double-sided tape on it is shite though... it seems really sticky at first, but only lasts a few days before losing adhesiveness. I recommend anyone installing the LED strips replace the double-sided tape from the start.

The number plate looks great but those clips on the boot trim are a BASTARD to get out. Couldn't have done it without the [now somewhat slightly abused] trim removal kit I purchased. I do NOT look forward to ever having to do that again!

Lastly I made a new discovery. The big obvious 'P' (parker) switch on the steering column. Never tried that one before. Hey, it turns on the parkers! Amazing. What a tool.
Though I'm not sure what purpose it really serves - the first position on the lighting stalk (right hand side of steering wheel) does exactly the same thing except also turns on the number plate lights. That position on the stalk seems a bit redunadant as a result. (yes, the parker switch leaves them on even when the key is out of the ignition).

HAHA might take you years before you get the LED DRL in there !! .. not a problem im working on a brighter parker … but will try on my car first and see how they go ..

I always tell people to use wax and grease remover to give the area good clean at least go through it twice … and it shouldn’t come off .. and if it still comes off then go with double sided tape (which I have done on some cars).

The number plate looks great but those clips on the boot trim are a BASTARD to get out. Couldn't have done it without the [now somewhat slightly abused] trim removal kit I purchased. I do NOT look forward to ever having to do that again!

Yes for sedan best thing to do is using a trim remover or you can use screw driver but might take you a while … but in MY10 – it’s so much easier and all you need is flat head screw driver.

I would say most people use it for when you park your car in very dark areas … as you parker will come one and you rear brake light will be on too ……..

The parker thing is some Euro requirement I think, and all international versions of the car have it. It's to do with leaving your car out on the street in snowy conditions overnight, so it can always be seen. Or something like that anyway.

As for the boot trim clips. All you need is a flathead and curved Needle Nose pliers, makes it a cake walk.

Hey Leo,

Finally decided to get some bling!

So how much would it be for the standard package (including fitting):
ie Exterior & Interior.

I think there is a lot of options as Im seeing from others, but what would you recommend I spend to get a good setup.

cheers

Hey Leo, I bought a set of parkers from you in October and I have just developed a problem with one of them.

The drivers side LED goes on and off and on while I'm driving. I''ll check it in the reflection of the car in front of me at a set of traffic lights, then the next time I stop at a set of lights I check the reflection again and the LED drivers side parker has gone out, while the passenger side is fine.

Any thoughts ?

It's rooted and you need a new one.
I vaguely recall a 3 month warranty period for LED's from Leo, so you should be able to get a free replacement.
