So I went to see could I fix my number plate light that wasn't working took of the cover took out the bulb wasn't blown out it back in and is working now
one thing though is when I looked it up it said the car had festoon bulbs but it actually has 5w5 bulbs which got me thinking about the LED. Someone suggested them here before is it halfords cool blue bulbs ? I think that's what they are called. Is it just they are a whiter look bulb not blue. Would they work well as number plate lights ? 0 -

The bottom looks much better to me then. All personal preference really. Same way I think Xenons look better than halogens.0 -

Think led number plate lights are naff as they are more of an afterthought(led bulb added to existing old fashioned bulb location), you get a big beam of light only lighting up a portion of the plate.
A proper led light should light the whole rectangle number plate up not just the bit under the two bulbs
i agree. nothing says tacky quite like aftermarket LED bulbs. you can tell from a country mile away what cars had them as standard and which don't. i like keeping my bulbs OEM 0 -

My car has half LED/half halogen as standard. The rear lights are all LED, apart from the license plate bulbs! I'll try to get pictures of mine at some stage, I'd be surprised if someone could describe them as tacky.I agree. And that's the way I have them done.
As do I. I didn't put single LED bulb replacements in, but two entirely new units that have 16 LEDs per unit.0
