Rear LED Reg Plate Lights Leon 2011

[LeonCR]

I would order 2 sets one for the leon and one for the exeo

 

[LordNath]

Messaged the seller's letting them know some orders may be coming through. Told them to ensure the second set I have now are sent and not the first ones. So you should be okay with returns etc.

Still no errors after a couple of days so they should be fine.

*touches wood*

 

[LeonCR]

Cheers dude

 

[LeonCR]

mine just arrived with fairly larger black resistors will try them later in both cars

 

[LordNath]

Okay mate. My first ones were black but the second set were long and silver. Try them and see how it goes mate

 

[LeonCR]

right installed and no errors, out of interest how did you secure the resistors ?

 

[LordNath]

As professional as I always am... I just pushed the resistors in.. Haha. Is that bad? Didn't think there was anything in the way of moving parts so just pushed them in. The wires weren't too long so wouldn't go far

Can you take a pic mate? Lol

 

[LeonCR]

I did the same snigger, its a bugger to get behind there with an LCR zorst

 

[LordNath]

Not much to take a picture of really. Such a small entrance I doubt I'd get my camera in. Just pushed them in. Can't hear any knocking or anything and I doubt they move too much due to the shortness of the wires

 

[LeonCR]

I think i may just shorten the wire with a cable tie to restrict movement as much as possible

 

[LordNath]

Not a bad idea that. You could probably tie wrap them to the cars original cables?

Thats exactly what i was thinking

 

[LeonCR]

easy

 

[Crafoo]

I bet you take the bulbs out, clean and polish them every week don't you?

This has to be a euphemism

 

[LordNath]

Yeah that's the resistor they sent me first that didn't work. It worked for like a day and then errored so keep an eye on it mate. Get a photo tonight when they're fitted

 

[LeonCR]

will do cheers

 

[Minty9]

Went to halfords this morning to try out their "canbus error free" led bulbs. Fitted them in the car park and got a nice white light from them. Was happy until I looked at the dash. That's right....error straight away.
Ahwel looks like I'll have to go for the super bright ones you both have lol

 

[LordNath]

Sorry Minty, had I known I'd have told you about Halfords ones. Haha. I tried them already. Errored straight away.

 

[LeonCR]

i have tried 6 sets and so far these are the only ones that have been error free

I have asked the seller to send the the stronger resistors incase I have any issues, not really driven the car but have a trip planned this weekend
