best/brightest LED indicator bulb for mk4 headlights?
« on: 10 September 2010, 22:46 »
I'm after a set of proper bright LED bulbs for the headlight indicators but all I can find are the opposite pin versions, not the offset.

Anyone got any that are good? If so where did you get them from?

...i bought some 24 LED brakelights for my tails and they were no brighter than a normal bulb  :huh:

i dont know if its because theyre smoked lights but id of thought theyd of made a difference.

I had a set like that mate, they are rubbish. They need a couple of the superbright LEDs on them to make them any good really, not standard LEDs

like these
