got them off ebay.....cheapest mod i've ever done. only cost me ?6. can't go wrong really. you need to buy four 501 bulbs (makesure they are the LED version and not the halagon) so in this case 2 packs of 2 bulbs. it took me 5 minutes to change and i was really happy with the result. here's the link from the exact bulbs i bought......

Do you have a error code with these led lights or no? also how much is that in US dollars?
Thanks
Thanks
no error codes.....in U.S dollers it would be roughly Four dollers, very cheap. The only downside is they dont show much during the day if the sun is out but at night they look nice.

are they LED bulbs (xenon white) ? they're more brighter then the halagons! these ones deinetly dont give off a yellow tinge.

I have tried all sorts. The ones i have in just now are non LED or xenon. They are plenty bright being 10w but yellow. Will see how these r. Only ?6 so no real chew if they are not bright enough.
I did have 8w ones that gave off a white light but in day light you could not see them. I fear these will be the same.
