Please kick back and enjoy a moment in which John installs one of our 3 Hazard Light kits with bright red LEDs for roadside safety. This particular kit goes on the underside of your bonnet or the underside of your boot lid, and includes every component necessary (Two each 12" bright red LED lights, 5-1/2 feet of wire, wire connectors and heat shrink tubing are in the kits).
  In the unlikely event that you ever need to pull onto the roadside or shoulder of the highway (Triumphs never break down, right?), you are at risk of being struck by a car. Give yourself the best chance of being seen by all on-coming traffic with super-bright red flashing LED Hazard lights, raised much higher than your tail lights and much brighter.  In this first roadside safety tutorial, we explore the ease of application.
We also designed another safety light kit for the lip / edge of your doors. This utilizes the same bright red LED lights as the Bonnet / Boot Hazard lights but is energized by the light switch wire in your door jamb. The same wire that turns the lights on in your foot-wells.
Spitfire Upgrades started putting kits together for DIY too. We will post a tutorial on the DIY kit for installing foam and vinyl on new door cards. We put two brand new pre-cut door cards, precut vinyl and pre-cut foam sheets in each kit. You save $90 (just pay $210, down from $300) by installing the vinyl yourself. -Or- we sell the upholstered door panels ready to install. Your choice.

The other big DIY kits we're particularly proud of is our dashboard DIY series:

Save $340: We apply your choice of veneer to a complete yet unvarnished dashboard and you simply applying the varnish. Rather than pay $685.00 for a completed / varnished dash, you only pay $345. Basically half price.

Save $490: For an even deeper discount on a dashboard, we apply your choice of veneer and only cut out the difficult heater controls cut-out. Again, down from $685, you pay $195.


We are recording the DIY tutorials so you can see how easy each step is. Follow John as he shows and explains the process for perfection.

Since you are already a Triumph owner, you are already used to using your hands on projects, so you're likely going to want to perform a simple DIY project on your workbench while saving hundreds of dollars!
