Anybody know if these will work for the front turn signals? http://www.hids-direct.co.uk/585-wy21w-amber-60w-cree-xbd-smd-12-5w-canbus-led-indicator-bulb/

I also noticed you say our front headlight bulbs are D8S yet in my owners manual it states they are D3S, which you swapped to?
That's the LED bulbs I have on my car, so seems really close to what you found. But they don't stay in the socket, I needed to put some "patafix" so the bulb stays in the socket.

And yes, on the car we have D8S bulb + ballast. For that point I swapped them to the D3S model.

Ok I will bear that in mind when I come to order the LEDs. With these do I need the resistors in series to sort out the fast flashing/blinking problem? If so, it might be worth adding that link to the first page please :)

Yes they have updated the Online version of the manual with wrong information again ! :frusty: :crazy:

The french Manual also speak about D3S HID ! But now the Turn bulb is right with the WY21W.
I thought this might be the case of them issuing wrong information :frusty:

Where are the ballasts located so I can double that I do in fact have the D8S version installed?

You definitely need the resistors to sort out the fast blinking problem.

Thanks for the tip, I added link to first post :thumbsup:

It's difficult to access and to find the info. You can try to take a picture with your phone of the back of the light and you will see the ballast.
Then you will find the version on it, IMO you have also a D8S model.

I have em from DD, no issue with the socket fit well. The only thing is the hyperflashing on the dash. Either you need a resistor or LED turn signal flasher.

These should also just work fine :

John, If this one is 100% accurate it might be an idea to add to the first post...?

it is not accurate :headbonk:
Can anyone edit this scheme to an accurate version that will allow us to find the right products and place group orders at one supplier and save TPT costs.

Plenty of car LED suppliers around closer than US but these different sockets are a jungle.

Looking for a reseller & one order for :
- Parking LED's (+ interior/trunk)
- ugly DRL to LED
- kinda switchback working on EU models

[MENTION=12964]Stark[/MENTION] , here's a picture I found in my phone showing the model of our D8S ballast :

Did you try to see if you have the same model ?
Thanks mate and no I haven't had a chance yet but will do when I can.

Do you just want the socket version for those bulbs ?

if yes, then :

- parking LED's : W5W or 194 or T10 (I saw it's compatible with W5W)
- Ugly DRL : P13W
- Switchback : 7440 socket on our car or WY21W
