They look good but need a lens over them to finish the look. Still think the bulbs in group buys are better option though. 2007 Vogue TDV8 in Zermatt Silver with Charcoal

Well Bushy, the reason I specced those bulbs was because I had tried led bulbs from ebay, too long to fit without messing about.
Tried the cob light conversion, good but still messing around and a panel failed after a few months, and, as I found, they aint as bright as the "specced" bulbs.
Halogen bulbs were not much better than original.
Seriously chaps, if you want to see behind you in the dark, just buy them. They work. Thumbs Up

Couldn’t you hide them underneath and fit your originals Stan? Adding an extra amount of light?
