I also remember vaguely something about having the indicators outside the sidelamps on the back of my Sankey, the way the army have it not being legal :-.

But I reckon that if you are using E marked lamps then you should be ok.

side light should be on the outside of the vehicle/trailer to mark the extremities of it..
If your going to use LED's, why not take a visit to a local traielr/hgv repairer as they use a lot of these now..

Be very careful what you buy. HGV direct have a lot on special offer but they are all 24volt! Make sure you get 12volt ones.

You'd have thought so, wouldn't you, but apparently not.  They have to be within a certain distance of the outside though and mounted symetrically, but look how far in the sidelights on a 300 series Disco bumper are, and agin the indicators are outermost.

wrecker:
well here it is guys,do you think it would be ok [-o<

Range Rover Blues:
I'd be more worried about the number plate, the bumper looks good though :)
