Am pretty certain, though I could be wrong, that Poppy prefers the look of the standard lamp units and just wants to replace the actual bulbs with LED alternatives.

Is that correct Poppy?

Have thought about doing the same myself but are just so many different types that it gets confusing.

Personally I removed the number plate lamp LEDs on mine as I thought they were too bright.
