Alright guys, searched the forums and online to hell to the point of making this account for the forums!
All the bulb sites online seem to suggest the MK3 has 501 side lights, so without checking my car, I ordered a twin pack of 501 COB LED's... Aaaaand they don't fit.
My side lights are P21W's and for some reason I can't seem to find anyone online with the same even on this forum?
My concern is if I get Cree P21W LED's on fleabay then it'll throw up a dash error. So I could fix that with a resistor kit.. but where's the wires to do so?
This is the first car I've had (only had 5 months) that's had sidelights that just pop out of the holder with no wiring involved, so I'm guessing it uses metal contacts inside to make the connection, meaning a resistor kit would be a pain in the ass to fit.
So far, looks like no easy fix just to get some nice white DRL's! Literally just want my side lights to not be a crap warm light.
Any advice?
