      Got my LEDs fitted finally!!!
      3 weeks ago I went there they said they had no stock (and they knew why I was there)... so booked another day 2 weeks after.
      Dropped my car on monday and called me in arvo saying only 1 LED has arrived and waiting for another...and finally done today...
      Hmm, thumbs up, or down?

      Now i got a spare pair of genuine LEDs, PM me if you are interested in buying, I can also do the coding!
      Cheers.

        Had my LED plate lights fitted yesterday, and a replacement valve to stop the rear washer dripping, and the software update 45D something - all as warranty items. Didn't even charge me for the loan car.

          Not sure I see the issue here. You certainly don't want the plate to be any more visible than to be legal. You certainly don't want the rear of the car to be a mass of white light. Yellowish lighting would certainly look better than white-white lighting.

            The issue was all these people bought/ordered cars with bi xenons and the package included led number plate lights that was started in the brochure at the time.

            All we wanted is what we paid for.

              At this stage my Highline with Xenons only has "yellow" light from the cornering lights and the boot light - the rest are LEDs or white. Getting the plate lights changed to LEDs was just getting what I'd paid for and expected, and I find the consistency of white (vs a mix of white and yellow) aesthetically pleasing. If you don't have xenons or a Highline, then a mix of white and yellow might not be as pleasing.

                I agree

                Either type of light illuminates the number plate adequately to be read at night so I don't think the LEDs make you more obvious. The white also looks a hell of a lot better - I also have bi-xenons with LED DRLs and LED fog lights so the consistency of white light around the car looks better.
