The ebay links in the previous posts I had a look at don't work any more (outdated). I know festoon ones are popular and I had them for a year but I've had one fail already.Am looking at these:clicky18 SMDs in a complete unit. Has anyone bought these at all?
i fitted the 18 led units to my car, They are very bright, I took these pics when it was still dusk so not getting the full effect from the pics, But gives you the idea.one side done and one side standard.
From your pics, Cap, I gather they're just push-fit?
If you were to get the cheap ones off ebay do they tend to blow quite easily then?

The eBay ones I've used the past year or so from seller fizzmo have lasted about 4 months a time before the flickering started. Great quick delivery and look good but getting a bit bored of replacing them 3 times a year! Be interested to see how these 18 LEDs hold up. Do they look like floodlights at night though? I see an s3 locally and it's like he has 2 maglites on his plate from afar!
Right, to update,The 18 smd ones above have failed after 8 months of use. That's worse than the festoon type which used the car's OEM holders and just swapped SMDs for bulbs. The 18-SMD ones didn't seem to fit snugly and show signs of corrosion within the unit but the unit and the connections are fine.Any different ones to recommend?
