    Default LED Indicator Bulbs

    Hi guys,

    was wondering if I can get some advice here.

    My indicator bulbs are getting very white, so I will need to replace them before the MOT.

    I am keen to get some nice LED's but since we all know that they can throw up some issues, was wondering if any of you helpful guys out there can advice me which ones work fine and which ones cause issues?

    I am struggling to get my interior LED'd up as 2 in the front work fine, but once I stick 2 in the back the front ones keep a light glow when turned off and things like this. So I bought several different one to see if any of them would work together - so dont want to do the same with the indi bulbs ...

    Thanks

    I think all leds you can get for exterior lights will strobe due to the bulb check even if they dont throw up an error.
    I had the same problem with the interior 501 leds but I now have a 36 led panel in the front and I split one in half for the rear.

    Indeed.
    Had this same problem.
    Bought set of PRISM 19 LED bulbs with resistors - once fitted them to the back - they were flickering during the drive and after i turn of the engine for 30 secs.
    During the day it's not noticable - but in the evening its different matter...
    So just decided that i will switch back to normal ones and i'm much more happier
