Interior LEDs and Bulbs - XenonHID4U.co.uk
« on: December 14, 2011, 09:55:45 am »
Hi all

Yesterday I took the plunge to get all my interior lamps replaced with LED bulbs - all in all I paid £30 including fitting  :happy2:.  The company I chose was:

http://xenonhid4u.co.uk/

And they did a great job replacing all the interior lights and footwells for me.   :drinking:

I really need to take a better picture but here is a rubbish phone pic:



All in all, highly recommended and the bulbs were swapped out very quickly (15 mins) with minimal fuss.   :notworthy:



Cheers

Hi Ash

Do you mind me asking how much your LED interior bulb replacement cost?  Did the company also replace the number plate lamps and presumably with no 'lights out' warnings?

Thanks

Hi there

They replaced all interior bulbs (footwells, vanity mirrors, front light above cockpit, rear central light).  Cost was £30 including fitting.  There are no bulb out error warnings.  The only one he didn't fit was one for the boot as he didn't have a suitable bulb to use - to be honest I wasn't that bothered about the boot so I will leave it as it is.

I did my number plate lights myself - its very easy to do:

Here is a link to the bulbs I used:

Here is a link to a fitting guide:

Note if you want to buy just the bulbs from the same guy, then he sells a kit through eBay (obviously you would have to fit it yourself).  Link for that is here:

Hope this helps  :happy2:
