    I'll post some pics. I had Autocheck problems a few weeks after fitting the HIDs but no problems since tricking the Autocheck control unit:

      I'm running the PIAA led sidelights with my Vagparts HID Kit and haven't had any problems with the autocheck. They're are not too blue and are a fairly good match to the HIDs. I will get round to taking some pictures at some point to show the comparison.

        Here's a pic of the Ring LEDs. It doesn't do them justice really - they look better than that.

            They do look good, but they don't look like they are shining onto the reflector - is that why they don't look as bright as normal bulbs? It is hard to take pictures of the lights though - we need to get some cars side-by-side

              A cluster of LEDs will have a different focal length to a singl;e filament bulb.
