Gonna be a lot of load resistors keeping that lot in check ;)

He did mention load resistors .....but I wasn't really listening lol.

TBH....I think I prefer standard bulbs, I'd use Osram Silvertec bulbs for the indicators perhaps.

I like how fast the LED light up and go off. I just converted the father in law's RX300 to LED on the back and it looks brilliant.

Toooooo much of a ball - ache to get it to work on a P2 tho. I might have a go at it one day ;)

Do these come with built in resistors to stop those annoying "Bulb Failure" messages and the orange triangle?

Won't get the message on a P1 but there's usually a little light to annoy you.

I'm still testing which bulbs I can change on my P2 without throwing a code. So far - not many lol.

The P3 models will be worse again. I don't know why Volvo do this to us, I really don't!

So much better, hose lights are tacky. Standard v70 classic lights are the way forward

Looks great Pete, although i like the old ones aswel.
Will the LED lamps that have built in resistors not work Martin?
