    Finally!! Found proper license plate LEDs for MKII!

    After putting up with my flaky home-made jobs for a couple of years, I have finally upgraded to some proper panel LEDs that fit properly! Very bright, highly recommended...

    And would you agree with all their claims? Simple plug and play and no LED light emitting still when car is turned off (as I'm encountering on my internal LED replacement bulbs)?

    Features:
    Best Choice for an OEM bulb replacement
    18 SMD LED each lamp, 5 times brightness
    Plug and Play with no additional wiring
    Super high bright white colour temperature
    No interference with FM radio as with other LED types
    No OBC (on-board computer) error messages
    Long lifespan, with the average life expectancy of 50000 hours.
    Strict factory QC test. 100% tested for reliability. Trust worthy, Quality assure your safety.

    Well I installed them in the dark last night. When they turned off I couldn't see a thing

    I want ones that aren't "BRIGHT"

    You know, when you actually follow a VW Golf R, or a BMW or Merc... actually Audi's. They aren't bright, but they're not faint. They are just right.

    I want those goddamn it!

    Have a look here guys: JOM - Main page » Catalogue » Lightstyle » LED number plate lamp

    I used to have the Racing Dash brand number plate lights in my Golf Mk6 and they were super bright - way too bright actually. They had 18 small LED's in each housing. Looked a bit ridiculous to be honest - was almost like having a spotlight shining onto your number plate.

    I purchased the JOM ones from Germany which you can see here, and the light output is perfect. They are brigher than stock, but not as "full on" as the Racing Dash ones. They use 3 medium sized LED's in each housing. They are also much better quality than the Racing Dash style ones: JOM - License plate LEDs, 2 pcs, Golf 4, Golf 5, Golf 6 Eos 06-, Lupo 99-03, Beetle 06-, Passat CC 09-, Polo 6N2 00-02, Polo 9N 02-05, Phaeton 02-, Scirocco 3 Golf 4, Golf 5, Golf 6 Eos 06-, Lupo 99-03, Beetle 06-, Passat CC 09-, Polo 6N2 00-02, Polo

    They don't fit the Octavia.

    One of the Audi versions could be the same as the Octy. Just check the shape of the housing.

    I put one in my mkII the other day. No errors not too bright (I do have a number plate light out though error on the MFD, but that is because my RVC and light combo on the other side has a failed light ))
