Hi mate, could you please tell me the size and type of bulbs used for the interior and No plate lights. Thanx in advance.

i think off the top of my head it was:
42mm length for the interior
2 x 37mm for the outside

but just check to make sure.
i used the ones with 6 leds on throughout but the ones for the no plate were a bit of a squeeze, they have to go in at a bit of an angle
Ultraleds.co.uk are your best bet

[mwbpsx]

Just had a thought !!!! while uve got the lamps out change the indicator bulbs for the chrome ones.....
gets rid of the orange reflection but still flash amber

[captainbeyond88]

good plan will do that! just waiting atm to hear back from ultraleds

mine are 8000k and i really like them. they are quite blue at night hehe
i think those are the right size but I recommend taking the bulbs out your car and measuring them if you want to be sure. it only takes 2 mins.
I used the 6 LED ones. for the interior it is perfect but it is a tight squeeze for the no plate holders. mine are in sitting kinda diagonally inside the festoon but they do fit, just. mine are all the cool white colour. the blue is REALLY blue...and looks tacky imo.
hope this helps
