I'm on this project now, but i'm adapting LEDs with resisters. Equal parts of the car and for the fun/ learning.
here are some sights i've found
https://www.superbrightleds.com/vehi...1776&year=1969
lists lights by location, pretty handy but kinda expensive.
similar here, but only exterior lights
https://www.carid.com/1969-jaguar-xj-type-led-lights/
this one has a range of lights, not sure of size you need though :/

hope that is useful

Hi all,
thanks for the links, i found a supplier in sydney off ebay and i can go to their warehouse with samples, jag has 3 different connections plus i want some for my ford as well, cheaper than buying the single white LED, attaching a 12V resistor and fitting....Tom

v12s - Home has complete sets for these cars. Expensive but he's done the homework.
As to adding resistors, I have no clue about that, I'm still in the stone age when it comes to leds.
the only LED I know is Led Zeppelyn.
I spoke too fast, I don't think V12s is selling leds anymore.

Thanks all for your input, the warehouse I can go to is in Sydney where I live, I can buy 10 LED dash lights ready to use any colour for 60c each as apposed to buying an LED with 12V resistor included for $2.50 each......& yes the other LED I have the entire collection all originals.......

My minimal experience with LED, is what the letters stand for!!!
Light emitting diode!!!
I have several in the house. Very few incandsescents. All CFL or LED.
Two of my flash lights are LED. I like 'em a lot. Much easier on batteries.
And a few solar rechargeables in the yard power LED. One is a battery of them and motion sensed. Life over the night very irregular.
Well, part of my tankless water heater went on the blink. Not the LED
display, though. A further session with the tech later this AM!!!
