Hoping to fit these internal ones over Christmas.

What bulbs are needed for the rear number plates?

Still not convinced on changing the rear clusters or side indicators.

Regarding that TDI pic, any photochopping involved there at all? Just curious as my puddle lights are already stupidly bright yet the ones in the pic look brighter again, so I am tempted....

Thanks.

/Edit, pics of the C6 kit here, showing the lights for that at least - http://forum.rs246.com/viewtopic.php?f= ... 98#p558487

Pics as requested.

Trups, were number plate lights supposed to be in the kit?

I was only expecting internal ones, would be a bonus if they are

Just noticed the lights with the wires connected halfway down the PCB. These would be better on all as the wires wouldn't have to bend back as harshly.

Bobby, sorry to sound a little arsey but surely when you saw that six of LED modules had diodes of one colour and two of another, alarm bells didn't ring before chopping them up and fitting them?

Anyway, as Trups said I said in both this thread and probably one of my older LED posts, the interior map lights appear to be fed a lower voltage when the main car lights are on. I can simply test this with a multimeter when I get a chance to confirm. No amount of resistors will fix this as they reduce voltage, not increase voltage, unless I am going senile. Trups' map lights are no worse than competing bulbs for this application as they can only work with the voltage that they are being fed.

Changing the map lights is purely for show/colour matching IMO as they simply do not produce the same level of light as the incandescent type that have a far more linear output subject to voltage applied to them.

Nono, the actual diodes look different. The red diodes look like clear/translucent ones if memory serves and the cool white ones look distinctly yellow. They are shown in the pics above. Anyway, that was what I was getting at, not the colour of them on.

Different colours? I thought they were all the same? I'm going to have a look at them tonight if I get chance cause either I have a different holder to everyone else or 1 bulb was wrong.

Dunc, the puddle/door open lights. Look at Pic 4 from Trups just above "The Loon kit ", the Diode difference is night & day.

I didn't even notice

Mind you I was trying to do it as quick as possible and had to resolder 4 wires back on.
