Numberplate bulbs..

[ross27]

Yeah, and if anything i find they have less of a spread compared to the filaments, its a more of a direct pattern.

I had hoped for the same when i bought mine.

They are slightly blue compared to my LED sidelights, although i think that the photos make them seem more blue than they really are.

Just took some tonight. Not the best photos, and nothing to compare to standard, but i hope they are of some help!

Thanks mate, look much better I rekon!

On the previous page is a picture of the bulbs, the link you put up is the ones they have installed. Dont look too good though (my opinion)

I seem to find this with MOST E-Bay advertised lights, be it sidelights or number plate..........
They are never "ice white" but the Blue gives you a clue. Usually more Blue than White (unfortunately).

And its Blue or Yellow, that Im actually trying to get away from!

Yeah thats the ones I got. They look great.

I put you in the spotted section about 2 weeks ago after seeing you in Erskine!

I ordered those ones from ebay yesterday. I'll put pics up at the weekend if they come in time

[SeanCorky]

I got a picture when i got in from the pub tonight! I turned the flash off...



It looks blue on my phone, when it's more of a white really

 

[R 20vt J]

They look pretty good sean! Like your number plate aswell!

Just seen that thread mate i posted in it!

Think am gonna order a set of these! Now i need to hunt for headlight and sidelight bulbs now lol

 

[Donnyboy]

When I fitted mine I didn't point the LED's right down at the plate as they were very bright. I turned them so they were facing towards the car, but not up the way.....if that makes sense. That way they give a nice white glow...but not too bright.

 

[SiPrince]

I fitted mine, gone one in fine and the other I pushed the housing up into the bumper.... OOOPS, good job I had my girlfriend on hand with little finger and managed to get them installed.

But I have a problem, I like LED's now, and I was driving over the woodhead pass on Sunday and there was a Clio with LED bulbs behind me, made my headlights look poo. So I need some white LED headlights.

Also on the woodhead pass saw a pair of Focus RS's one green one white. looked the dogs, but then realised they were fords.

I think I might get some for mine but I've seen these and was wondering if anyone had tried them as each bulb has 6 LED's instead so should give good illumination

In this situation im not sure the 3 extra bulbs would make much of a difference, as they are all in the same direction and still limited by the small lense they shine down through.

Be carefull not to buy "blue" bulbs though, could get you in trouble with the police.


Believe me, they do look better than in the photos. They illuminate the full plate, and are not as blue as the photos may suggest.

Thanks for the heads up missed the bit where it said "Blue"
