Additional information:
Description:

What is this kit?

This LED bulb upgrade kit converts the exterior and interior lighting on a Sprite Mk1 Frogeye to warm white LEDs. It is supplied as a matched set for cars retaining a positive earth electrical system and includes the correct indicator relay for LED operation.

Key benefits

  • Clearer signalling: improved visibility from brake lights, indicators and sidelights in modern traffic.
  • Reduced electrical load: LEDs draw less current than filament bulbs, easing demand on the charging system.
  • Warm white colour: avoids a modern blue-white appearance and suits period lenses.
  • Correct indicator operation: LED-compatible relay included to maintain a stable flash rate.

Limitations: Dash illumination dimming may be reduced compared with incandescent bulbs. LEDs are less tolerant of poor earth connections, which should be addressed during installation.

Will it fit my Sprite?

Yes – this kit is intended for the Sprite Mk1 Frogeye running a positive earth system.

  • Suitable for standard Mk1 exterior and interior lamp holders.
  • Not suitable for negative earth cars (use XLTG241).
  • Not suitable for headlamp bulbs.

What’s included

  • Warm white LED replacement bulbs for exterior lighting.
  • Warm white LED bulbs for interior and instrument illumination.
  • LED-compatible indicator relay for positive earth systems.

Headlamp bulbs are not included and are supplied separately if required.

Technical details

  • Colour temperature: warm white.
  • Fittings: bayonet-style replacements for standard bulb holders.
  • Electrical: positive earth only.

Installation notes

  • Direct bulb replacement in original holders.
  • Indicator relay must be replaced with the supplied LED-compatible unit.
  • Clean bulb holders and earth points during installation to avoid flicker or intermittent operation.
  • Confirm correct operation of all lights after fitting.

Why choose this kit?

This kit provides a complete, polarity-correct solution rather than mixing individual LED bulbs. Supplying the correct relay avoids common indicator issues seen with piecemeal LED conversions.

FAQs

Does this kit include headlamp bulbs?

No. This kit covers exterior and interior bulbs only. Headlamp LED bulbs are supplied separately.

How do I know if my Sprite is positive earth?

Check the battery connections and wiring polarity. Always choose the kit to match the car’s current electrical configuration.

What if an LED flickers or does not light?

This usually indicates a poor earth or dirty bulb holder. Cleaning contacts and earth points resolves most issues.
