I want the door pins but I don't think it looks right with that black ring around the door card.

I think the door pins look so much better :-)

Yeah thinking the door pins stand out a bit too much...will consider them though

Gutted. Just tried to fit my interior bulbs and they are too big. They have two leds down the side so are too long and stop the light cover going back in place. Trying to get a smaller one from the seller but don't think he has smaller ones.

Awwww no! What a pain dude! :( wasn't these ones you got was it:

How long are they? I had longs in mine no problems at all.

Yeah they are sheppy.

Rusty they physically stick out of the light unit so I can't put the cover back on

Odd! Hope they are the correct ones, just spend £15 on loads of them :-/ ha.

i have just checked that link and it appears they are not the same as i ordered
they must have changed the listing the led bulbs i got from them only had one set of smds around the side
they were just like these ones

sorry chaps looks like i will have to change that link i have no idea how it has changed at all

You wasn't to know Tucpal. The seller has come back to me to say he doesn't have any with the one led down the side.

Awwww damn :( will have to speak with the seller to see if I can return them then.

So are those new ones you linked too the Correct ones?

They look like right to me. There's only 7 packs left apparently.

yes mate i am looking at all the links now and trying to find out what has happened here
loads have got them using that link but it has changed for some reason

the correct link has been updated really sorry chaps they should still fit the boot light and glove box but if they have two smd on the side
they wont fit the reading lights

It's okay mate, not your fault thanks for updating us with that new link anyway.

Will see where these 2 SMD ones fit when they turn up and then I'll buy some of the others for the places where the others don't fit

Bought three packs of those new ones anyway, have asked the other seller if I can return those other ones too. Only bought enough of the new ones for the roof lights so fingers crossed I can use some of the bigger ones for the boot and glove compartment

They were indeed too long for the roof lights...but I've managed to install them in the boot and glove compartment will see if I can return the other 6 I bought as they're no use and I've ordered 6 of the smaller one linked by [MENTION=2]tucpal[/MENTION] for the roof

not all bad news then

Nope not at all they don't appear to be any brighter than the standard ones though which I thought was odd...maybe they will look a lot brighter when I have a look later when its properly dark

night time will revel the light

Words of wisdom there hehe

if you go for the twin LED in the boot they look even better

Looks good! I need that! Do you have a link to the how to anywhere? i can't seem to find it but i'm sure there was one...

not sure if rusty did one if not i will do a how to at the weekend as i forgot on that one
but it is easy

Okay thanks mate just thought i saw one on here but must have been mistaken!

No I never did one I will do when I add one into Lewis new car tho.

Awesome! Thanks for that definitely be interested...I need to take a break though! Ha. Costing me a fortune and the Mrs is giving me grief lol

took me a year to get the car how i wanted it
cheers rusty a how to is needed for that there was a thread somewhere on here about it

Haha easy to see why! So much that can be done with these cars isn't there and it's fun doing it too :P. I think I have about 8 things on my to do list now!!! Ha.

That may have been what i saw then if I didn't see a how to

Don't even get me started on my to do list lol

Hahaha it's probably longer than mine tbh, most of my stuff is fairly straight forward retrofits too but there's a lot more I don't have on it which id like to do but will cost too much :(

Also the LEDs look fine in the dark a lot better than the rubbish yellow bulbs! Hopefully won't cause any issues in the future as they are pretty cramped in the bulb holder...LEDs don't get warm though do they so shouldn't melt the plastic case that they're in and touching I guess...

Well worth the upgrade. The car looks so much classier inside. Thanks for the heads up guys

Fantastic aren't they! Properly impressed by how much better than the standard ones they are

You got enough air freshener there mate?

cool glad you got it sorted out

You can never have enough lol. They've ran out so they're not all stinking away. The hid direct one is the latest.
