    Default number plate bulbs

    Now I know that our cars hate leds and they throw a hissy if you go anywhere near them but, does that include the rear number plate bulbs too.

    im led to believe that the number plate lights are not linked to anything so wont throw up a warning. Ive seen pics on here of other users using the leds but IMO Mtec 501's are much better!

    I bought Leds for my headlights and they set off the warnings so I put them in the rear number plate light and they were fine
