LED bulbs that actually work with canbus system?

[Alex]

Where can I buy some led bulbs for the read number plate that actually work with my canbus sytem? I bought some of a reputable Irish ebayer few months back and after a month of working they started flickering not working etc.

Not sure, but might be a blessing, the mad bright LED reg plate bulbs look horrendous on an older car. Especially the ones you could probably see from space

Don't ruin the look of that lovely compact

Let me guess, they are from the West??? If so I had terrible dealings with them couple years back.

I like the LED rear bulbs once they are more of an OE look, they can be got as full units now rather then just bulbs

I went through countless LED's until I just got fed up and bought replacement units. Grand quality, got one nicked though so will have to buy more! Can't remember who the eBay seller was.

I bought these for the E60.

If I had to be picky, I'd say they are slightly on the bright side but nothing to worry about.

I went through several sets of LED festoons until I finally gave up. none of them lasted more than a few months.
I`m happy I went back to original, in hindsight the look so much better.

IMO LEDs only belong on modern cars, not an E46
