Kuro Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Folks Given the sad man that I am, I fancy a change from the standard lighting, maybe a bit of colour would be good There are loads of festoon types on eBay, but most are LED. Given that these are different from the standard spec, can I expect any nasty shocks, i.e. warning lights a plenty or anything? Perhaps a stoopid question, but I gotta ask Oh yeah, and has anyone any idea of size? I've just taken them out and examined them for wattage, foolishly assuming there would be one size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I replaced mine with Blue LEDs http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/produc ... 610&page=1 these are the ones I bought, look very effective at night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dunk Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I fitted white festoon LED's inside, white quad LED's as sidelights and white LED number plate bulbs. Well pleased with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H5 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I can recommend cold cathodes too, give a much softer light but very effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkW Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Thinking finally getting round to doing this. Just looking on the autobulbs direct site and noticed these: https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/produ ... t=0&page=1 I notice they are 38mm not 30mm like the recommended ones, so does anyone know if they will fit as the look as if they are brighter bulbs? Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIXXERUK Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 you would be better off getting them off ebay, they are very pricey got mine here (you will need two ) http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search. ... p=1&fsoo=1 I'm not saying to buy them there but £9.99 is steep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedrush Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Okay I come to the conclusion you lot are a bunch of hypocrites or just dont like me when I wanted lights (neons) you lot slated me and said chav, yet you lot have some form of neon inside the car Maybe if I had said exterior led highlights you would have warmed to it more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 i went for white - blue look good tho leds in the rear number plate lights look imo - same bulbs as the front sidelights are used - no tools required they just unclip gives a much cleaner light louis it looks like your roof has got dandruff in the pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
