pistonbroke Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Many of you will have had the same conversion my car had when I bought it, with the right hand reverse light being converted into a fog light with a painted red bulb. Problem is, this bulb lasts all of 5 minutes before becoming worse than useless and emitting white light, failing any potential MOT test. So, I bought one of these...... http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/u38220r-ultra-high-power-single-wide-angle-p-1326.html http://www.ultraleds.co.uk/images/u38220r.jpg not only is this thing mega bright, it doesn't show a red blob behind the clear lense of your reverse light. I've heard that some LED bulbs of this nature that people have bought don't fit through the hole in the cluster, well here's the proof that this one fits fine. OFF Now see it turned on, notice how bright it is compared to the normal red driving lights. Shouldn't have any problems passing an MOT now.

bluecoup Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 they are good bulbs but i've had some customer service problems with ultraleds and wouldn't use them again but there stuff is top notch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I'll need to get this done as mine just failed an MOT for "offside fog lamp missing" and the rear light fog conversion seems a bit too complex for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 AT LAST! no more painting the bulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
