capless 501's mate. Dont get the ring ice blue ones as they look no different to standard (might just be cos they're next to xenons though).

The service you'll get from Ultra LED's will be better than anywhere else I bet.
Dino has had his for about 3 months, and he text me the other day to say one had gone, he phoned them and was told to send them back and they'd send 2 new ones out.
These are the ones I've got

yea i've bought things from them in the past but the delivery never used to be a total rip off
the disclaimer about LEDs going too close to headlights is because of me and another guy buying white leds for our angel eyes on our mk4s, changing the halo rings to white instead of yellow.
the projector totally melted all the led bulbs lol

Delivery was £2, I see it's now £2.99.
I now have LED Side Lights, LED Side Repeaters, LED Brake Light, LED Numberplate Lights and an LED Boot Light

i was £2 for delivery on 12 x 5 LED bulbs and 2 other led bulbs for another use, so i dont fancy paying £3 for 2 little bulbs!
