Before I do anything that might damage them, how do I clean the chrome on the inside of the front turn signals and also the rear tail lights?
I was going to use dish soap and water, but thought I might ask if there was a better way. They are dirty and there are a few spots where the chrome is bubbling/chipping, but it's not bad. Can I polish them with anything? |

Spoke's boards are "plug and play" inasmuch as they plug right into the existing bulb sockets, but they are boards of an array of high-intensity LEDs. They far out perform any simple bulb-replacement LED. They take the reflector out of the equation - they fill the entire lens area with LEDs.
They are here: https://www.spokeworksled.com/914-led-solutions ...and he's running a sale right now! I have them in my 914 and in my 911, and they are brilliant, in every sense of the word. |
