Any recommendations of which ones to buy that won't give can bus errors?
The reverse has to as bright as possible as I reverse into dark spot at night.
Thanks

Good timing, just got around to fitting these to mine 10 minutes ago, only to realise i should have bought two lots as it's two per side (does say it in the description, must pay more attention :laugh:)

Not sure if you've used Bold sport before, but would highly recommend them, there stuff is top quality. Only downside is it can take up to a month to get to you sometimes

Just been looking at them, but thought they were a bit pricy by the time you factor in delivery from China
What are they like? Are you happy with em?

They are pricey, but you know how the saying goes.
Can't give you any direct feedback on quality yet, but i bought them off the back of a couple of recommendations :happy2:

I bought sidelights and a reverse light from Bold Sport (along with the 3D LED door warning lights).
For the reverse light I opted for the 15x super bright SMD with error canceller function, instead of the Osram 11x SMD. Link: http://www.bold-sport.com/store/index.php?route=product/product&path=43_71_93&product_id=339.
Reverse light 6000K:

Like GTi-Andy said the build quality is very good. :happy2:

Boldsport as in america not china

I agree - the Boldsport LED rear reversing light is good. No errors on my car, and it's better than the standard halogen bulb...

Never had anything arrive from America, always via Hongkong post :confused:

tbh I've been ordering 10 or 20 of everything. always in bulk. so not sure why mine comes from that way.

My order was just a small box. Maybe for them it's cheaper to ship from the US bigger boxes. :confused:

i used to work in shipping (security) and i would have thought its cheaper to ship from china as its a much faster route.
a little confused. but hey ho. back on track.... those bulbs do look good. just expensive for what they are
-
(...)those bulbs do look good. just expensive for what they are
That sums it up quite nicely. :signLOL:
If they last another 6 years like the OEM bulbs did, I won't care that much the price I paid.

thats very true. i must admit they are on my loooooooooong list of things to do

I ended up buying the Jetta reverse led as it was brighter then the golf one they were selling plus 2 x pairs of brake LEDs too.
Must admit the previous stuff I've had from bold sport has been spot on so not expecting anything less from these.
