Yeah I had some in mine, and they do look great. Right up until two weeks later one of the bulbs stopped workin. I got them off ebay, so I should have known really.
Keep meaning to get some more, but can't be arsed. I just put standards back in for the MOT the other week.

Yes, they are the same fitting as the rears, but, as Richie said, they may put the bulb warning light on
White LED tail lights through a red plastic lense may end up not been red enough.
RED led ones though would be cool...
yeah it has the bulb warning light but it hasnt come on with the sidelight led bulbs in.
what bulbs do the front bumper foglights have on the T-5 R?

I got mine from the seller gxxled on ebay. They have the leds facing forward, and leds around the edge to get more coverage.
But the ones stainesy has got give off exactly the same effect mine did.hey're definately better looking than standard bulbs. I see cars all the time with our type sidelights and can't help thinking they look really dreary.
I've also got white leds in my rear number plate illumination. Got them from halfrauds (bloody expensive, but they're still workin).
Anyway, its a worthwhile upgrade and gives a fresher look.

LOL, I've just dug out the led bulbs I took out, and tested them. Both of them are workin now (instead of just one). So I'll be stickin em back in tomorrow.

Alot of these led's are polatly based, it is possible to put them in the wrong way round, the capless (501's) are the best example.
