Danish 294 Posted June 23, 2016 orange cortina lamps That would be a start. You could shine an orange and a red lamp through an orange lens, and if you had a flasher circuit that would give two more options. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cortina-city 141 Posted June 23, 2016 Richard could possibly take an orange lens and fit a clear lens using perspex? then fit a tri-colour LED? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfrace 116 Posted June 23, 2016 Cheers, yhea I saw the special lamp you did, it looked good. I guess a multi coloured led would work if not a cluster of various coloured LEDs. I was hoping there was an aftermarket lamp out there with a matching bezel to the originals. If need be I can drill the dash, I want a switch to manually operate an electric rad fan so will probably use a HRW switch for that if I can find one and hook up a tell tale.
