Caterham Tail Light Upgrades

Our Caterham LED Rear Lights Upgrade

The problem with Caterham tail lights

One of the fundamental issues with Caterham rear lights is their being positioned so low down. With modern cars continuing to get bigger, and the growing popularity of SUVs, it is becoming increasingly difficult for the average motorist to see our lights when they are close behind us. With the new Caterham LED Rear Lights Upgrades being positioned in the same location, this is an issue which hasn’t been addressed.

As for the light units themselves, the running lights around the edges are very bright and dominate a large portion of the cluster. With such small elements left for the brake lights, there isn’t an enormous change in the lighting level when the brake pedal is pressed. This problem then further extends to the indicators, which again are very small but also just add more light to an already very bright and localised area. This can make it difficult for vehicles behind to distinguish exactly what is being indicated to them.

What’s the solution?

In true Turn 7 fashion, we have spent a great deal of time experimenting with multiple options to find the best operational solution, whilst providing a nice finish.

Upgraded tail light bulbs

What we have devised is an upgraded LED backing plate, which is designed to sit within the existing light clusters and replaced the bulbs. This significantly improves the brightness of the original rear clusters and the area illuminated.

High-Level LED lights

We then combine these with dual high level LED strip lights on either side of the roll bar/cage. Built into these are running lights, brake lights and indicators, providing a full additional compliment of lighting which is around two feet higher than the standard cluster alone.

The full rear lights upgrade package is available from us for £369.
Fully fitted by us, here at our workshop, they’re £499.
