Can anyone tell me if phase 2 V70's have a warning if your front side lights blow? ie, like the brake light warning.
I am about to purchase some LED bulbs but don't want to if they are going to through a warning on the dash everytime i put my lights on.
Thanks.

There's no warning for the side lights, but the indicators, head-lights & the tail/brake lights all do.
LED sides are a better option, but be warned that the cheap ones melt with the heat off the headlights. (I had a set do this, but it's the 501 pinch holding plastic spade that melts)

Neither do I, but the plastic housings were.
My last set I bought were HID(more like a suggestion) LED 501's.
These use a single high powerd circut board type LED. These are WAY brighter than the single, quad etc LED 501's. You can usually spot them as they have a metal crosshatched collar on them.
Be warned, they are very bright & will get plod attention if not in brilliant white.
