Anyone know a suitable error free puddle light led to go in the bottom of the wing mirror?

Also looking for some good quality LED sidelights

What's the original bulb in the puddle light?

Matt will have one to suit.  :happy2:


If you really want an led in the sidelight I'd get Cree LEDs, although they are over a tenner a pair.

I, and many others have just used the MTEC sidelight and headlight bulbs...

Tried Cree LEDs from your mate they don't work or they work for 2 mins and stop

Right... The Draw must be too low. Try the £4 MTEC bulbs.

Along with the 4x H7 MTEC headlight bulbs and the H9 MTEC fog light bulbs, I think they look great!  :smiley:
