I'm glad I bought the ones captain Britain recommended today then , I'll just put the packet straight in the bin when it arrives then!
If you read back you'll find that i haven't recommeded anything,
I posted a link to something that i bought but haven't fitted yet as stated,
I never said they were bright, or fantastic, or a must buy

Yes Pics please,

I'm interested in these too for my Ed30, I've also got the light that shines on the side of the car from the mirrors and was wondering if I could get these types of bulbs for the mirrors as they are a bit yellow looking. Anyone got any ideas.

Cheers

Yep I replaced my puddle light bulbs for White LED ones.

Pretty sure they are the same on the golf which is W5W

I have never had much luck with aftermarket LED's they always seem to pack up or start to flicker  :ashamed:

I've had some in mine for over two years, got mine from ROBOKN on here but not sure he can do them anymore? Not much help to anyone but just to prove they can last.  :happy2:

Went to put the ebay ones in today, I noticed a hole 15mm wide in between the number plate lights, is this supposed to be there?
I'll report back on what theyre like in the dark!
