That's funny bro. I have the exact same problem. I bought a new housing, same problem, tried other bulbs and they worked fine, so it is definitely the LED. Bought these from John 6 months ago. Dead already. My passenger foot well bulb is doing the same. Trinity has the same LED pair for $24. Not sure if I want to replace with the same poor thing though

+1.

I love my R-Dash LED license plate lights. Even my wife noticed them the other day (I should say "busted me" because I had done that mod on the sly).

I may have extra LED bulbs for each of you. I'll need to look for the extra set.
Roger, PM me your mailing address and I'll send it out. Roy, I have your address.

The RD LED license plate lamps are not just bulbs. They are a complete replacemebt for the OEM license plate lamp housing and contain a super bright array of LEDs with built in resistors. They are super super bright which I like. But if you are going for a stealth look, these are not for you. My wife called them "spotlights" for the license plate and that's a pretty accurate characterization. They seem very high quality.

I too had problems (multiple burnt out bulbs) with the original LED license plate lamps. The RDs, so far, are flawless.
