Technical LED Lights

If I use LED light bulbs in the 500 (not headlights) with the bulb warning system give false warnings?

If its a monitored system / circuit then it will

Unless the LED units you use have resistors built into them (some do, some don't).

However all bulbs you use on your car in the UK need to be E marked. LED replacement units are not, and as a result your Car will not comply with the UK vehicle lighting directive and you'll technically be breaking the law

But if you get a decent LED unit the law probably won't bother you

I was just looking to replace the side/daylight ruining bulbs because the 500 seams to have an insatiable apatite for them. I will see if I can find some with resistors that don't look blue when there on.

Thanks

Thats probably because you have cheap aftermarket ones.

The last one to go was replaced by FIAT and cost £12+
