    Custom made LED bulb for replacement of the bulb in the 308 GTB/GTS handbrake lever for illumination of the center console. Common available festoon LED lights do not fit because of the diameter.
    Also present in the dashboard of the GT4.
    I developed this solution this year and it was already discussed in this thread, where you also find pictures.

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/308-328-sponsored-yellow-compass-group/511151-308-handbrake-lever-bulb-led-solution.html

    Available in several colours, though green is original.

    $19.00/each plus $7.00 shipping from Germany to everywhere in the world.

    Just a quick information for those who have ordered recently. There was a small delay in material due to summer holidays of my small business supplier. But today I got the fresh material and will make them, and some more, during the coming days.

    Best Regards
    Martin

    Again some more available from the recent batch and latest orders. Only green ones.
    Unfortunately I had to rise the price a bit because of the USD/EUR thing and a slight raise in parts costs.

    It's now $22.50/each + $7.00 for insured and trackable shipping to everywhere in the world.

    I have one of these in my car. Martin ships fast, and the light is good quality. In under 5 minutes, your car will be back to the way it looked from the factory. I highly recommend.

    Again some available from the recent batch in green and now also for the 308 GTB glove box in warm-white. This warm-white colour resembles the original filament bulb much better than the older blueish white LEDs.
    Other colours on request.

    Price is back to $ 21.00 plus $ 7.00 to everywhere in the world.

    Best Regards
    Martin

    Hello together,

    just thought I should bump this thread once again. I still make and sell these LED lights.
    Quite a few through ebay.com. But I now stopped recently selling via ebay.com since I now have to wait for my money for 21 days.
    This is a new procedure for me which I won't accept, because I never caused any problems with my transactions during the past 18 years.
    So if anyone is interested in theses LEDs, drop me a PM.
    Or find them on ebay Germany. (ebay.de) Though they are a bit cheaper without ebay because of all the fees.
    (Of course PayPal is welcome)

    I've installed this item in my 308. Fantastic product, extremely well made and transform the lighting in the cockpit. Highly recommend.

    Richard,
    you have a PM.

    Glad to hear you are still happy with it. Of course I remember you and all of my purchasers. And if not, I still have all in my records.
    I was overwhelmed with inquiries back then and without a proper excel-file I would have created a chaotic situation :)

    I forgot to mention. The small parcels I send for $ 8.00 are trackable and insured.

    Hi Martin..

    I didn't even realize this was on the car! So, if you still have some, may I order a couple of the green from you. PM me at [email protected]

    Thanks

    I will order the new material for the fresh batch tomorrow. So I have to set an order deadline till tomorrow morning (late Sunday evening on the US-westcoast).
    If there's further interest, let me know.

    Hello together,

    I ordered my material today for those, who sent me PMs and replied on my PMs. Sorry, Orders based just on a post here within the thread I cannot take into account. I make the lights prior to payment. I charge no money earlier than when they are ready for shipping. And had bad experiences in the past, when there was no further conversation, than just a post.
