    Hi,

    I'm looking to upgrade my bulbs. I'm looking for white led's for the side lights and brighter dip/main beam bulbs.

    With the LED's im led to believe that they have to be 'can-bus'? which will stop an error code being thrown up.

    any guidance would be appreciated.

    thanks

    I got my sidelights from ebay, they are canbus and do not throw up any codes, But I've taken them out as ever since I fitted them my indicators were intermittently not working, I had to keep bashing the lens to get them to work, since putting the standard bulbs back in I've not had this issue. Not sure if it is coincidence or not, but it just seems strange it hasn't done it since removing them!!
