Title: LED conversion
Post by: ashw831 on August 19, 2012, 05:41:52 pm
I have got a mate who is trying to get himself going with importing carbon, lights and some other stuff. At the moment it looks like my car is going to be a bit of a marketing tool for the mk5 stuff. He gave me a full set of LED's for it yesterday, fitted them yesterday to everything. They are fantastic, really bright and crystal white (he has got all colours to chose from). He is looking at putting a conversion set together for all cars, would there be any interest from you guys for around £30?? They are canbus so no error messages on the dash.
I will get some pictures up later once it has gone dark.

He is also doing me carbon pillars on the doors (the bit between the windows) if people are interested in them?? Not sure on prices yet, but he will have his website up soon for all to view.

So if you have a five door you'll need 4 puddle lights?  :smiley:

Sorry, I was thinking puddle lights, as in the door lights.  Puddle lights, you need certain wing mirrors? Silly question I know  :rolleye:

Puddle lights Are the ones that light the floor up when you open the door- on my 3 door they are under the mirrors. If you have little lights under the doors when you open them in the dark then yes you will need 4 bulbs... I think....
