Thanks both once again. Food for thought for me although a noise on my way home suggests I may have another priority first ....

So I tried some ring ones but didn't like them as to me they looked a bit stuck on. Instead I opted for the Showeller ones from eBay for £100 delivered.

They are pricey but very well made and delivered with instructions. I think they look quite oem and can be set to go off or dim with the side lights.

I would humbly submit that some silvered indicator bulbs would complete the look on your car too. (keeping in with the black and silver theme)

Indeed good idea...Thanks.
