LED side lights

[Obbzi]

I saw a Mk 5 GTI yesterday in Longsight near Manchester that had LED side lights and it looked amazing, they looked like the Audi style. Reg was M3 --- (Won't put the full reg)

has anyone managed to fit any if so where did you get them from and how much?

I have them integrated into the headlights

The brighter one on the inside is the sidelight.

Nice!

Are they plug and play?

Hurdy where did you get those ones from? Did you just wire them into to the sidelight switch? You need any resistors wired in to prevent the bulb out light?

Cheers

They look even cooler 'in the flesh' - as does the rest of Hurdys car!

just replace the sidelight bulbs with LED white bulbs, thats what i did.

I love these and have been toying with the idea of buying them. They'd look the dogs b0ll0x on my black ED30.

If you have proper LEDs, then you should constantly get a 'bulb out' warning - unless you have somehow VAGCOMed it out?

Ahh - they already have the appropriate resisitors in the circuitry.  The probs arise when peeps just get some plain LEDs in an appropriate bulb cap, and then swap them over.
