Replacement LED's

I jumped on the bandwagon and changed to LED's like quite a few people months back.

The interior ones are fine, but I checked the outside - sidelights and number plates and only one is half working the rest are off.

Any feedback from others who changed them ? 2009 3.6 TDV8 HSE Santorini Black

Try another bulb or swap the bulbs around and see if they are still the same, LED's can be tempreamental Whistle Ive fitted them to my sport and they work fine.

Which ones did you use? I tried a couple from Halfords and they lasted about a month (if that). I've got some others (from Ebay of course) and they are all still working after about 3 months.

I got this type (but 10 of them for about the same cost!): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ERROR-FREE-CANBU...%26ps%3D54

They look good in the sidelights (similar colour to the xenons). I've also put them in the rear number plate lights (has the benefit of puddle lighting behind the vehicle - they are that bright) and in the door puddle lights. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Guys remember when you fit them not to touch the lenses with your fingers as this can make them fail with the grease from your skin, you should wear gloves to protect the bulbs..

22" Stormer alloys
Side steps

Headrest monitors
Black badges
Stainless tailpipes

I bought six can bus for outside and 15 normal for inside. Canbus being resisted type. If you don't use the correct ones, you get bulb warning messages so if working half cocked then its the led not incorrect bulbs. I ordered from same bloke on eBay and resisted bulbs had four lights where as non resisted had two. That doesn't make sense does it Rolling with laughter 2x TDV6. SE and HSE.
