LED Side and Reverse light bulb

Thinking of changing both the Side lights and Reverse lights to the canbus error free LEDs. Will they both flicker on start up?

Never done either, but I don’t think the reverse lights will as I’m pretty sure they are not monitored. 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

My sidelights are supposed to be canbus free but they blink (cold monitoring - which can't be turned off with iiDTool) when not turned on. I tell people it is a security feature Wink

Reverse lights are also canbus free, but never seen them flicker. - Get the best ones from Grofus on the forum Thumbs Up .

I put in Grofus reverse LED's and they don't flicker, put canbus free in front sidelights and they flicker when I first turn the ignition on for a few seconds (without turning the lights on!) then stop after a few seconds.

I put different make as DRL's in my VW Transporter and they don't flicker!

Think i'll stick with normal 501 w5w bulbs up front.

Anyone got a link to reverse light LEDs which are a straight swap?

ta!

I have LEDs in the reverse lights and they do flicker when you turn on (my brothers do too). You get the occasional flash as you drive along too.
