Did your license plate LED still keeping on post the Error Code ?

No problem and can try to install in this Friday if I can find them.

License plate LED with resistor then error-code free
Attachment 62942
wow that is a big 1.
I have seen some e90 guys get the LED which has built in 1s and work

I bought the LED with build-in resistor from one of the member in here before (From US), but one of them has gone in only 2 weeks, so i put my blue tinted bulbs back in.
But they are 100xtimes less bright as the LED, the PIAA LED with built-in resistor cost about 700HKD!!, so thats the reason why i give it a miss.

I appreciated if you can get them but if you are not going today, let me know what should i look for, anyway, speak to you on friday buddy

I checked and found PIAA actually not a build-in resistor, they have a extra connector with tube. which that tube is we talking about the load resistor. But they pack in good look only.

All claim have build in led are suck also, they also use the connector wiring to trick.

Power (W) = Voltage (v) x Current (A) , Voltage (V) = Current (A) x Resistance (ohm)
For Angle eye,
non-xenon version use 12V, 5W bulb, Then means draw 0.42A current, if replaced by led which assume draw 0.25A current, then need 70 ohm resistor
xenon version use 12V, 10W bulb, Then means draw 0.42A current, if replaced by led which assume draw 0.25A current, then need 20 ohm resistor
License plate use 12V, 5W bulb, Then means draw 0.42A current, if replaced by led which assume draw 0.25A current, then need 70 ohm resistor

Mean the resistor value depend on which led being use.

May be I said too much, I will buy some 20 ohm; 30 ohm; 50 ohm for try and error.
