Guide: Fitting LED's to side lights and yellow side lights - Page 3

lol. I ordered 6 of them as a trial to see what they look like. I am going to be ordering some more now.

Here is where I got mine from:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWNX:IT

The only thing to be careful with is the side lights. The LEDs are a bit long, and they may touch the yellow plastic cover and break the top two LEDs. I know so , because I manage to break on

Photos to follow, but they won't show as well in the photo as when you look at them

Your in the wrong section mate. This is for pre 04 S/V40's. You want the C30/S40/V50 section.

Ok so I have read through this whole post and am lost now with all the LED's flying around lol. Would anyone be good enough to list the types needed for internal roof / footwell, sidemarkers / boot etc. Thoroughly enjoyed reading it all though, like kids at Christmas heh

They lost me too, would love to replace the lights currently on the car, the led ones in the photos make the cars look a lot more modern.
