I bought these: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=121145833580

You have to make sure they go in the right way (if the don't work turn them round) I chose warm white as the pure white made it look like I had main beams on the back.

be wary of buying cheap LED bulbs, i replaced 8 of the sidelight/side markers on my Sprinter, but despite being CANBUS ready, i still had the failed bulb warning on the dash, i tried fitting a resistor to the light fittings, but still got the warning, in the end, i changed back to the regular glass capsule bulbs

I have never had an issue with mine :shrug:

You are looking for 38mm festoon LED's. They have to be Canbus friendly.

I purchaced a pair for £1.99 in November 2012 and they are still going strong.

DON'T buy these! Bought them last week and get the dashboard warning! Change back to old bulb no warning! So will be for bin :devil:

Hi, I had the straight forward 3 led versions you can get off ebay, and ive just had to change them this week, they lasted about 9 months for me, but I constantly drive with my lights on (old habbit from working nights for years that i cant seem to break lol)mine suffered from overheating which distorted the board they sit on, so ive bought a more expensive set from ebay which were still only a few quid, with a heatsink on the back, which also supports the board, I personally would look for ones like that, im sure they will last years
