nah right now I'm selling the loose sets.Wolf-Spirit wrote:you are from US im from Belgium :s
but leds you mean ones to replace original lights (eddison socket) or yust leds as in loose ones?
and could you answer me Q? are there led lights i can place AFTER i put clear window back on or before? (as in do the fit trough original holes?)
As for your Question, I have also pondered that same question. I always wondered how people got those thru the factory holes. I guess they'd have to open up the housing like you did.

typically LEDs have a extremely long lifespan and they'll probably outlive your car. Yes try to find some but I'm thinking that bigger ones might be better.Wolf-Spirit wrote:eek so that means should a led die... i need to do this all over again?... ffs

well atm i found out that soem tuning company makes leds to replace original bulbs... BUT only white ones that bright up red... wierd if ya ask me.. they never thought about a backup light or orange ones for turn signal (yes EU is orange)
but true on your point these look a bit small as they are ment to replace original ones.... what would you sugest yourself?
and outlive my car... hmm ok np there then cuase my typical ownership of a car is 1-3 years then im fed up and get a other one
