The LED indicators from Minispares are not too bad and still look reasonably stock. I think it’s much better than sticking an LED bulb into existing housing.
ps.: how do you embed video to the forum from imgur?

Are the indicators the Land rover type ones? For the side repeaters how much are they? Do u have a link to them

Yes, front indicators are Land Rover ones. I think side repeaters are the same as well though Minispares do sell them on their site. You do need to fit a resistor for the front indicators…Are the indicators the Land rover type ones? For the side repeaters how much are they? Do u have a link to them

Why not check out the ones here
https://spiyda.com/
My concern is that their LED chips are only facing straight on and not providing enough light spread though…

The WIPAC Land Rover LEDs are listed as "E" marked for compliance to car lighting regulations for indicators, so would expect the light spread/pattern to not be a problem.

Yeah, I was referring to the spiyda ones. That's why I went with the Minispares/Wipac LED unit ones...

The resistance on the circuit is very different, causing the indicator and hazard relay to flash very quickly, just like when the resistance is lowered when a bulb in the circuit blows.
If your fitting LED indicators, it’s better to change all the indicator bulbs at the same time and replace the relay with an LED compatible one. Saves all the resistor fitting too.
There’s quite a difference in the quality, output lumens and pattern spread in LED’s, that would be a whole new thread in itself.
