501 Led Sidelights - Finding one that fits

Skinjam · 16th December 2015, 10:50

Hello,

Can anyone recommend me a nice set of LED sidelights that I can fit without having to remove my headlights, ideally nice small ones which give off a nice, bright white light.

I tried these: 6 smb version but it was a tad too long and I broke it in half

Many thanks!

James

Hello mate, I got mine from RTG AUTOMOTIVE based in Chorley nr Preston. They dont trip the bulb fail light seem to last as mine have been in for months and they have 9/13 smd bulbs that fit my mk1 ZT just fine. Lee.

Which design did you go for? Looking at their eBay page they have left me spoilt for choice!

I've had these fitted for 4 or 5 years now without problems http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/T10-501-W5...gJJh0TJ1cv8DZA

Mine have a slight blue look too them but so far no comments from Mr plod. Yes they do have a great selection, my car is almost all led now im just waiting for decent quality led headlight them im done. (With bulbs). If you cant choose get a couple of sets their pretty cheap and try both. Lee.

I've been thinking of getting these but, can't comment on them 'cos I can't justify that much money, at the moment, for a couple of sidelight bulbs

They're not strictly road legal, (maximum is 5w), but, I don't think you'd have any issues.

They do them in 8000K as well which is more bluey

On Ronnie's recommendation, I bought some of those about a year ago.
Well worth the couple of quid.

They give a much whiter light and make the original bulbs look yellow in comparison.

The new one is fitted to the offside.

Thanks for the suggestion, I was looking at these earlier but they look fragile and exposed but I'll order a few and see how it goes.
