They been in since mid August.Error free.There is what they call a canbus which is a resistor module that stops any errors and comes with the lights.You just place it into bumper before putting led light in.

Thanks for the reply.... decision made I'm pushing the button on buying these ones  :smiley:

Now ordered, £ 38.72 including 1-2 day recorded delivery :wink:

Do you get bulb out issues with these ones or any other errors?



Cheers,


Jim
From reading AndyG's posts I understand his had no problems with them. So for £38-72 I thought they were worth a punt. I shall soon find out  :wink:

The CanBus is the electrical system that is in the Golf, and many other cars nowadays.  It allows the car to communicate with the electronic devices in the car.  The resistor box you have makes the LED lights CanBus compatible by tricking the car into thinking the LED lights have the correct resistance... as LED bulbs use much less power / current than regular bulbs.
