LED number plate bulbs

[sheffboy]

if you have the same type (leds printed on circuit board) just tilt them towards the plate. It throws the light in the right direction and stops them giving a 180 degree spread downwards.

Lights up where you have just been Agreed it can look a bit chavtastic

Just twist them round to face the number plate when fitting - they have very directional beams

I've been looking at this all morning and was going to get the one's from ultraleds.co.uk but they've sold out.

So, do any of these look ok, and which will be best?

On a side note to save starting a new thread, anyone know where best to get a black rearview mirror?

I would stick to the standard ones TBH, I wonder if the new BMW style one's fit?

I'm interested in chaging the reversing lights, expecially when i have to reverse down a dark ally sometimes
