jeebowhite Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Silly questions are those not asked, when you spend money incorrectly... Thats when its silly ;) I bought a set of 501 LED's and replaced my number plates - make one hell of a difference! very bright, and clear light on the floor! I suggest go LED :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont mind spending the extra if they are good quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 not really many of the expensive ones are chinese with a bigger price tag than the cheap ones i have cheap led festoons in my number plates 7 months on they still work and cost £5 the ones i originally bought were £11.99 and lasted a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeebowhite Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 to be honest, you dont often see a great deal of benefit over cheapo and expensive ones. I fitted these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230339848383?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 and they look brilliant! Clean light and much more legible than the oldies!
