Just to note, the interiors are 42mm and not 44mm. My 44's have deformed by way of the end caps bending inwards.

My own fault for not measuring, but I didn't expect 2mm to make them bend! 42's ordered Thumbs Up 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

How strange!!! I used a digital micrometer/caliper to measure my LEDs and they were 44mm, standard festoons 42mm!!

The one in the rear the 42 seems ok. The front feels loose but doesn't fall out so I just stuck with it. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

England 2011 Freelander 2 SD4 XS Auto Indus Silver

Hi all,
still confused on this.
Have replaced side lights with canbus type LED and really pleased with them.
Question is, do I need the canbus type for all the interior/ puddle lights as well?
My car is a 12 plate HSE. 2011 XS SD4, Indus Silver (Getting to love it more and more)
2012 HSE Manual, Santorini Black (Loved it and did not want to let it go)

Great thread but lost track part way through .... would be really helpful if someone could post a comprehensive list of the individual bulbs and recommended source Thumbs Up

Most of us use/used - fizzmo uk on eBay.

Super fast delivery. All the below for roughly £14.35 from fizzmo uk on eBay.

3x CANBUS 8 SMD LED 501's for number plate and glovebox (comes as two pairs though)
2x 42mm 12 SMD LED Festoons for interior
1x 37mm 3 SMD LED Festoon for boot light

Just to add, there seems to be some variance on the interior sizes, MY13 is as above. I went for the canbus/error free on the whole order, just because I could and most of fizzmo's are!!

All fitted perfectly with no dim glow after locking at all. I haven't got puddles so can't comment. 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

Cheers Jimski, i'll look them up and get them ordered

Could only find a 3 SMD canbus version of the "42mm 12 SMD LED Festoons for interior " should I opt for this or go for the 12 SMD "non canbus"

Non canbus interiors should be fine, possibly what I got to be fair......was a while ago! 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

Cheers Jimski, just wasn't sure if the 3 SMD would give sufficient light and if canbus was necessary.

United Kingdom 2011 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Manual Ipanema Sand

Just started to replace my internal bulbs with LED's and I notice i havent got any footwell lights.
Tried to find them by lying on my back with a torch but cant find a fitting.
I have a 2011 GS, Does any one know if they are standard for this model? I find it strange that footwell lights arent standard on any car these days.
