    Replacing front and rear indicator globes with LED? (New Tiguan Life)

    Hey guys,

    First post on this site - great to be on board. I've just sold my Mk7 Golf and ordered a Tiguan Life... it arrives next Thursday and I'm super excited!

    Wondering if anyone has any experience with replacing standard globes for LEDs?

    The good news is that the Tiguan has LED headlights and brakelights. The bad news is that the front and rear indicators, and I believe the reversing lights, are still standard incandescent globes.

    I'm wondering if I can replace these with LEDs. Ideally I'd like to use brand-name globes rather than anonymous ones from eBay. Has anyone done this, and if so, where did you source your LED globes?

    Cheers and thanks!
    Mike

    Congrats on the incoming new car. Try illumo or Supanova for good quality LED's. I have some of the iilumo canbus LED's on my car and they work well and dont upset the cars canbus monitoring system.
