I found the wiring that TVR used is too stiff and puts unwanted side pressure on the connector causing the contacts to bend over time. Fit some new connectors with more supple wiring and join that into the exiting loom. Might as well replace the light boards while you are at it as well.

I did the same. I wired in 4" extensions and bought new lamp holders from ebay

Right, here goes, the bulb cluster, plug and a bulb all shot. I`ve cut off the plug and replaced it with mini spade connectors, new cluster and bulb and all is well biggrin
