Rear Quarter Lights
Bush Tucker Man:
Mine only had the bumper indicators/tail-lights when I bought it.
Therefore I acquired a pair of earlier body-clusters.
Luckily my loom was already compliant at the body cluster multi-pins plugs (checked with multi-meter), so the clusters were fitted in an instant :D
With only a change to the indicator relay & an uprated fuse*
The new relay was required to cope with the additional load of another 21watt indicator bulb & equally importantly activate the 'trailer tell-tale' on the dash.
The safety advantage of having 2 lights to each side was the main reason I did it.
If one bulb blew, I still had one light per side, and in case of emergency 4 indicators flashing in unison was a great visual aid.
In fact I thought it was such a good feature I recreated it on the Discoverys replacement, with 'NAS' sized lamps.
The upper pair function as tail/stop, the lower pair as tail/fog
*The trailer (of the time) & my lighting-board had 2 x indicators to each sie & kept blowing a 5amp fuse, with a 10 amp problems ceased
