Call me an old cynic, but "Been there, done that" and I've not found a sensible LED that lasts long enough in that position.
And the rear plate in the UK is yellow anyway, so what's wrong with old-school filament bulbs?
In the end I gave up on my 20-year-old S8 and put the ORIGINAL factory bulbs back in, still working fine, they're indestructible.
The money I spent (and time) on LEDs was a total waste, should have left well alone.

FWIW, the only way to guarantee error free LEDs on these old style CANBUS systems is to have an resistor set up in the circuit - however in saying that lots of people get away with these plug and play systems! You and your luck. I installed the EM Tuning kit with the resistors added to the circuit and it's great. The LEDs are just right too - they don't light up the entire street lol
