LEDS on rear number plates

[trevstylee99]

hey guys sori if theres a thread for this btu i cant find it anywhere can any1 tell me if theres a kit yet to put led 272 festoons in without setting the bulb failure light off? i got my HID kit and piaas on the front and its working great but with the numberplates theres no room for adjusting. any help guys?

iim guessing the LED's consume such little current the ECU cannot detect the consumption of the lamp, or all it sees is the consumption is less than it should be so throws up the warning.

Perhaps a higher power LED module or if you electronically minded, a sutiable parallel resistor to bring the overall current consumption to that of the normal bulb.

Unfortunately theres nothing out there at the moment - I've spent 8 months looking...

But I do believe theres someone on here who's actually looking into getting some made.
