Lights Out For Lucas, Bulbsthatlast4ever

Hello All,

I am writing you all to inform you that after nearly 3 years of making LED Conversions for Lucas taillights, it's time for "Lights Out For Lucas." For a number of those years, I have been "Undaunted by the Darkness". The Prince of Darkness has been slowly reclaiming his domain, in the form of declining sales and interest. It has been a good fight and I have decided to retreat to higher ground.

2007 will be the last and final year for anything Lucas orientated from Bulbsthatlast4ever. One product will be affected right away, the 679 Model line-up. Of course the other model lines will also slowly follow as the new year progresses. :cry:

Many people have been singing praises about these products. However, praises does help offset the cost of the producing these. :roll:

I would like to thank you all for your help and each of your contributions to the cause. :wink:

I will also continue to repair any units that I have ever sold throughout these past years.

Please feel free to share this information with all interested parties.

Lights Out For Lucas Update

Hello All,

I am sorry to inform you all that I sold the last 3 679 LED Taillights yesterday. I will not be making anymore for direct sale, only for distribution. :shock:

A private businessman has agreed to become a distributor for this particular item. For more details on this announcement, please visit my forum at http://bulbsthatlast4ever.com/laborator ... d.php?t=61 .

Thank you for interest and all your patience. :!:

A friend who owns a Triumph TR4 sports car wears a shirt with the logo "Joseph Lucas - Prince of Darkness" on the front. On the back it says "the reason the Brits drink warm beer is that they have Lucas refrigerators"

A bumper sticker on the car reads "the parts falling off this vehicle are of the finest British craftsmanship".

Seriously though, when at N-V, the biggest grief we had was with Lucas, who made wiring harnesses and supplied all the electrical bits that weren't made in house. Their basic attitude was "you're such a piddly-assed little account, you don't have any clout with us".

I tried to get Bosch and other European parts to replace Lucas, but was shot down on the basis that "the market place expects British bikes to have Lucas".

I have one of the Model 679 boards that has stopped working. Do you still repair these? Regards, Nigel Spaxman
