Changing number plate globes to LED

[navtruckchic]

Thanks!!

There are three types. Bayonet, screw, and wedge. You have wedge. The number relates to the globe size. Learning a bit as I go here myself.

 

[navtruckchic]

You're awesome! Thank you sooo much for your help!!! That makes both of us! We'll be globe experts by the end of this saga lol

 

[Navmania]

No worries. So it looks like you need T10 Bayonets single element. Also read that if you buy cheap ones they can be more of a blue colour than white.

Let us know how you go. It will help others in the future.

 

[navtruckchic]

Hmmmm interesting. I'll have a look and see what I can get. At least I know exactly what I need now. I had no idea buying globes can be so complicated! Lol
I'll let everyone know how I go

You should start yourself a build tread. I waited to do mine (and still haven't) and it is that big it will take me a week to post it. If you start one on your first mod all you have to do is keep adding to it. I need a good rainy day I think.

 

[navtruckchic]

What do u mean by a 'build tread'? Sorry new to all this

 

[Navmania]

You start a thread and name it say navtruckchics D22 build, and every time you do something to you Nav you add it to the tread and show what you have done. Do a search on some and you will see what I mean.

 

[navtruckchic]

Aaaahhhh got ya.
I've already done a few things to it, just slowly building it up when I'm not buying the wrong globes! Lol

 

[Navmania]

Think of the people you have saved from doing the same.

 

[navtruckchic]

Hahaha true true

 

[navtruckchic]

So I contacted the eBay seller to say the globes I got didn't fit. he's sending some of the bayonet style ones instead, free of charge coz he never stated that they don't fit all navara models number plates.

Ye after brad gave me that advice I sorted my **** out and organised a build thread. Which has also become a random chat thread but doesn't bother me haha
I really enjoyed it, love sharing what I've done so far. Just waiting in a day off then I got a few more things to add to it

My pleasure! I wish I knew about the different globes before I bought them but now I have a set of new parker globes as well, so turned out ok in the end.
