After upgrading my headlight bulbs I'm trying LED sidelights to get rid of the horrible yellow glow - I quite like the look (Poor picture taking courtesy of me ) whether they stay in permanently remains to be seen.

are they a steady beam or any pulsing?

i think i have a set spare from when i did my internal lights, but which LED did you buy? Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Nick they are steady bright light, but are Canbus. (I tried ordinary w5w led but they flicker so rather than throw them in a drawer I put them on the C n as front marker lights )

Here they are...

There are cheaper with one, two or three LED's but I wanted the mirror inside the bulb housing to shine. I'll let you know what I think in a few weeks and whether they are going on the 'trailer' as well

let us know how you get on, and i'll place my order, really need to do it and the the wingmirror lights and the door puddle lights, and the map reading lights as i've had the car for a year Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Back to first post: No DRLs on my 11my. Are not the DRLs the squidgey bits of plastic under the front bumper, in front of the wheels which were obviously designed to be wiped off when traversing a field of long grass. DRL=Drag Reduction Lips? Any comments still pining for my 3dr, no removeable hardtop, no drop glass tailgate, no roof rack, no pockets everywhere to stow all that man kit

Got my LED side light the other day and braved the snow to fit them this morning

I got the eBay ones in McP link in this thread, came the following day I also ordered the same day a couple of pairs from Disco3 sponsor Hids4u to replace a couple of others on the car, when they arrive they are aiming to wing mirror and door lights Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Let us know how you get on with the wing mirror lights - i want to change mine long with the number plate lights  Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints

Hi,

Want to replace my sidelights with LED's and I've been reading I need the Canbus type LED's, is this correct? If so, can anyone post a link to a UK website where I can buy them? The above ebay link no longer works...

Thanks taztastic

Just to confirm, do I need to get the "canbus" type bulbs or can I get any of those bulbs listed on that website?

Cheers 2008 3.2L HSE Zermatt Silver LHD

Has to be canbus ones!

Nice one cheers!  2008 3.2L HSE Zermatt Silver LHD

+What type you all used? the 2 or 5 led type. I had some freebie normal led type from Autobulbs Direct (they quite often throw in free gifts with an order) but they pulsed, guess I need these canbus ones and relegate them to SWMBO's Polo. MY14 TD4 manual XS Orkney grey.

I've ordered the (cheaper) 2 bulb canbus LED lights. Reading the reviews most people seem to think they are bright enough. Only time will tell though. I'll post a picture when I fit them if you like... 2008 3.2L HSE Zermatt Silver LHD
