Ah ok. Do these need to be "canbus" to not cause errors? Its a BA9s base correct?

I'm looking at these (but they are Ba15s) bc Cree are the best LED's to use for OEM color lighting.

they should be bax9s type but you can get away with ba9s.. ... - .- -.

Stan, mate, it may be well lit were you are, but it has been known for power cuts to strike, mainly during the 70's, granted. But not totally unheard of in this present time, plus there is bulb failure (of the street lamp variety), and the good old council saving money! So you could find yourself in the dark, so to speak. Only now you can go backwards in the dark and make out obstacles, that could have in the past could have caused or
And also I can't believe that you only drive during the hours of 10 am to 4 pm, so good rear visibility from the driving seat in the dark is an absolute must!

I serviced the Rangie yesterday and I have had the Hungarian reversing light bulbs in for some time now and yes they are starting to distort the lens quite badly. Whoops If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.

@paul , with reverse mirrors, pdc and my slightly brighter reverse lights i think i'm ok for the next thatcher regime...


some not very good phone pics,

Are they much better Stan? 5% 10% 50% brighter?

difficult to tell Craig, on the first pic you can see the 'shadow' below the bumper and the normal bulbs didnt do that..they arnt as bright as having two sets of 3 cob panels though .. ... - .- -.

Craig did you ever hear anymore on the 'Powerful' ones that were rumoured

NO... I said they were in the pipeline and are not connected to me in anyway sir... When i hear any news i will post it on here but until then gents... Please just be patient and STOP ASKING ME!!!!

......and just to keep you all updated, and not a massive surprise, my 21w bulbs are distorting the plastic lenses. Noticed yesterday when polishing.

Might leave them for a bit or I'll get new units and revert to standard I think. The top clips are broken on my units so they don't hold to the tailgate all that well. The Philips screws also go round and round so I recon you have to take the carpet bit off the back of the tailgate and attack from behind.

Just not keen on seeing a yellow panel behind the lenses.

The cree ones in a bulb could be good though, as above post pic by horse86......
