Led for boot light

What's the best led panel to get to install in the boot to do away with VX's pathetic boot light?

One which only takes a day or so to be delivered and not weeks from abroad too?

Do you just want to stick it behind the existing lens?

Oh right, had a small panel one flying about you could have had for nowt.

If you look on eBay there's a few cheap Chinese sellers that now have UK warehouses, so it's still cheap but takes day or two postage, just search uk only... Ordered a few stuff like this recently, you probably need bigger panels but the 6x4 under my bonnet are more then bright enough.
