Does anybody know if you are able to buy sealed led tail lights for a sierra?
if so where and how much?

thanks aleks

[alien]

nope... they dont exist.

most who have done it have used the factory screw holes in the bumper to hold a piece of sheetmetal cut to shape that has a new hole in the middle to hold a smaller sized light set.

i have narva ADR compliant (as opposed to trailer) lights on my sierra. to get them to fit in the stock possie
i had to make the hole around 1mm wider and using the stock light mounts i bolted a bit of tin in and then mounted the lights to the tin.

I like that car...

But for the trailer light's, I have ADR compliant light's, LED's with in built reflector's that are ADR approved..

[shep]

mine are adr for a car most (all) that dont have a reverse light are only adr for a trailer.
cross check the numbers on the light with the relevant adr. i would be stunned if any one would ever get pinged for it but.

separate ADR for stop, tail, reverse and indicator, just put an ADR compliant Reverse light on with it and you are covered

front parker??

It's white, & at the back, come's on with rev, must be rev light's...

Reverse lights are not a RWC requirement in Qld....

Why is it that some lights are legal for use on a trailer but not on a car... Surely both need to be equally visible at night as if I'm towing my Zook on my trailer you can't see my Patrol tail lights.....

Since 1972 they certainly are

[shep]

i thought there were different requirements for the angles that the lights can be seen.

[skelaaleks]

Trailers dot need the rev lights. If the car comes standard with rev lights it needs them. If a trailer has rev light mounted but don't work you will get pinged.

I've spent the last hour and a bit searching the web for info on this...
ADR 1/00 Reversing lamps... Introduced 1973 and last revised 2005 covers the approval and fitting/use of reversing lamps but nowhere does it say they are compulsory on a vehicle....
http://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2005L03873

I have spoken to two local RWC mechanics (both officious bastards) and both said that reverse lamps, if fitted, must work but there is no requirement for them.
