Whistle I don't think that CanBus bulbs are needed, as far as I can remember they don't show up in the LCM... that's just knocked 75% off the price Wink Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

No defo don't need canbus lighs for any internal lights... and the LED'S do dim..

The only ones near there that do are the puddle lights in the exterior mirrors... Thumbs Up Pete

^^ sort of right, while the puddle lights aren't on the LCM either, they do need to have the same drain as a normal bulb.... for some reason they need this for the timer circuit to function.... but I reckon that Craig's solution of wiring them direct to an interior light is the best way around that Thumbs Up Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer...

getting leds to work in the mirror puddle lights is easily done by wiring one of the normal bulbs in parallel with one of the leds... ... - .- -.

Or you could just wire it to the lamp in the bottom of the door and save yourself the reliability issues that standard bulbs present Thumbs Up Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

Bow down Fair point, but a small price to pay to get away from the "I'll wait until your within a step of that puddle and then go out Shocked " effect.... I don't think it's just mine.... but from pressing the open bottom on the fob you have to sprint to get the door open before the light goes out Shocked Censored Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer...

I went for all blue interior led's (except the map lights) as I had them in my old Jaguar - gives a nice "look" no danger of showing up any skin imperfections and gets very positive comments Cool I'll get some photos tonight (if it doesn't rain)

Quick mobile phone photo of the Blue LED's - As I mentioned basically changed every light with the exception of the map reading lights as I discovered in my last car its very hard to read under blue light Smile

Bought them on ebay in January last year from a seller called we-sell-hids as a pack of 18 although he has none listed at the moment.
