Number plate light out -options?

Post by Data Ghost »

Just noticed tonight that one of my number plate bulbs are out. Obviously I need to get it sorted ASAP. I know that many on here have swapped the standard bulbs out for LEDS. What are the LEDS of choice on here at the moment? Obviously I want bulbs that are plug and play, won't throw up any errors, and don't blow after a month or so.

Will I need to order online or do Halfrauds sell LEDS? If I need to order online I will have to get a standard bulb in the meantime.

Thanks all :)

Careful though as the ones I got only lasted a few months and then gradually failed. After taking them out to inspect the electronic part of the LED has corroded which I guess is why they failed. I am currently waiting for someone to recommend some more reliable options for the W5W.

Guys. Do a search on here for Flux. He sells LEDs which many people have installed and been happy with.
