Default Interior Boot LED & Rear Number Plate LED's

As above, im looking for a bright white interior boot LED and the same for the rear number plate on my MY04 S.


Who's got these, where did you get them from and how much did you pay?


I have no idea at the moment what size/fitting the bulbs are, and am assuming eBay will be the mojority vote but I want some quality bulbs if im honest.

Thanks all

I am yet to put pics up but I got fantastic ones from autobulbsdirect

Select 12 LED and it fits absolutely perfect in the boot light hole. I will do pictures and post a thread as I changed most of my bulbs to LED.

For the numberplate I don't like super bright bulbs so I got single Cree LED bulbs so its filled bright white but not lighting up the floor neon style.

2 of these

Not sure if they change, I have a 55 plate the number plates are 501 pointing down and the boot light has a plastic cross hatch cover again 501 plug

I'm also after bulbs for my PFL MY03 but as I understand it it's not a simple case of fitting LEDs? Don't you has to change resistors and such? Thanks.

As long as they are 12v and have a 501 connection your will be fine on all years

eBay item number:330326159380. Wack a set of those in the back to light up the reg plate. I have them and they look great and very modern white glow. Other members on here agreed.

They are the best thing I have treated my car to. Looks great, I would love some facelift rear lights to really set the back off at night.

I would like that too but takes a but of trimming of metalwork to do that! The wiring will require some splicing too!

Resistors are needed for any car with a bulb warning, so luckily, not ours!

I don't trust eBay, buy quality and reputation, buy once.
