      has anyone ever bought leds to replace the bulbs in the car? i remember doing that a long time ago,and ended up that they were awful. Much less brightness, and not wide enough.
      i now see they have different models,and i would like to see some examples esp. since they cost about 10GBP each!

        I have fitted LED to the side lights and they are great.... Fitted LED's to the dash and they are rubbish... but I put that down to the dials etc...

        I have jst ordered some LEDs for the iterior and will see what they are like...

        Do a search for a thread by Jas11n on fitting allsorts of LED to the car - It's a Great Read....

        This is it!!

          You could always mod the rear boards and use some HIDs for reverse lights, might be a bit over kill though

              I haven't ordered or fitted any of these, have seen them on the Ultra LED site & Fleabay...

              I am just doing the interior ones to have a mess about with...
