Just bought a kit for LED lights to replace the internal car ones , so are brighter and use less juice. They are canbus compatible , so no panic there. Now the issue is, I have 1 off festoon bulb, which I guess as the boot one and 8 off these flat led's , which I have guessed so far , as 2 in the roof light, 2 in the footwell and 2 for the number plate lights. So that leaves 2 left over. Any idea where I put these ? :D
 
Glove box is a good one . I thought the boot runs a different bulb than the others. If not, I have this one bulb which is connected at both ends left over :D

Sorry. Wasn’t trying to be specific, just suggesting where you might have lights that have been overlooked :thumbsup:

Just a bit tired after the Nürburgring 24 hour weekend, and a 16 hour drive back yesterday :P

Lucky sod getting to the ring. :driving:
I have sussed it out :P
I had 2 for the overhead light. The new LED's dont fit on the centre light, as the hole is too small. So, the outer 2 reading lights , you have to remove the unit from the ceiling, remove the bulbs and refit the bulb holders, then fish the bulbs to slot in from the front and refit in the ceiling. I stuck a blue ambient bulb in the centre for the door light
2 for the footwell
1 for glove box
1 for the between seats cubby hole. What an arse to fit !!
2 for the rear reg lights
The one festoon was for the boot.
So all accounted for and really happy with the brightness in the car now. Bulbs below with seller details

So, last night the latest wife said the blue bulb was a 'bit seedy' :? , so after a rummage through my box of assorted bulbs , I found some unused Phillips ultra bright LED's . Fitted one and we are both talking again :D
