I replaced my bulbs for leds but they have lasted maybe 500 miles before one has completed failed and the others flicker. I have taken them out and reinstalled checking the connections but are the same.

 

A link to a reliable led would be great if anyone has one?

 

Thanks

Dan

The 5 way 501 leds is what i used to use, but like you after a while one or more of the cluster would lose an led and and another started to flicker, i changed to 5 way smd leds and had no issues, but the light spread is not as good as the domed led heads, but by adding an led strip around the inside of the dash binnacle really makes the difference, thus making the rear 501 leds to concentrate on lighting the needles.

 

The link has white ones, but gives you an idea of what you are looking for :thumbup1:

Thanks, as for Led strip did you just pick up a feed from the 501 supply?

 

Cheers

You can pick up the feed from the two prongs at the bottom of the dash, which supply the 4 little bulbs that face the dials, as you look at the dash, left is positive :thumbup1:
