Bewick Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Morning everyone, I'm wanting to replace the rear number plate lights to the more modern LED look, a friend of mine has pointed me in the direction of these that he has used in the past and highly recommends them, however when you check the fitment list on the page they claim they don't fit the lupo, any ideas if they will or won't fit:Have a look and any help or guidance will be appreciated:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-36mm-Xenon-White-6000k-LED-Number-Plate-Festoon-Light-Bulb-272-C5W-SV8-5-/140659455189?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item20bff4f4d5Thanks, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treblet Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 You have no need for the error free lamps.Error free lamps don't make the lamp any better it means that cars with a CAN bus don't throw up an error codes because it thinks a bulb is blown.The Lupo doesn't have a CAN bus.

Bewick Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 I just want some brilliant white ones to match my xenon headlights really, not blue or owt like that. If they're too small what size do I need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bewick Posted April 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Cheers for that Benny, so I'm guessing the 39mm festoon bulb is the size I need and not 36mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosaJak Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 i didnt no that i though error free ment they dont fail like the cheep ones haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treblet Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 £1.99 for an error free one is a cheap one which will probably fail! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arosaJak Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 considering you can get two for £1 3.98 for two is not really cheep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Yes the lupos don't need error free bulbs but...the built in resistors stop that dreaded flicker these are bright and fit right in, nice colour too http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/38mm-Error-Free-Canbus-SMD-LED-Festoon-Bulb-C5W-239-SV8-/320651095658?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4aa84b6e6a#ht_2054wt_986 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
