Hi guys, last year I bought some white number plate lights and one just went a couple of weeks ago. So I went onto ebay and bought a set for 4.50, but within a week they had both blown.

So I contacted the seller who sent me another set, but they blew again.

Now I know a few of you guys on here use them, and I prefer them way more than the standard yellow lights, so can someone link me a set that are proven to work and last.

Cheers :)

Something must be shorting out somewhere causing them to blow, check the wiring loom and clean the contacts..

pretty sure its the bulbs, on my old car the cheap led numberplate lights and sidelights kept blowing all the time. on my civic i put the cheap 7 led numberplate lights in and some of them have blown etc. so atm ive got these inhttp://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130484630091?ssPageN ... 1439.l2649 and so far in the few months ive had them in,theyre fine and not blown or anything. however their not as white/blue as the cheap ones and look as much of a 'hid' colour like the cheap ones did. might just be because my numberplate light covers need a clean?
