Hi,

Has anyone changed the wing mirror bulbs to LED, and if so was it easy?

Cheers!

Should be easy, take off the covers and pull the bulb out - get the equivalent LED type. Last one's I need to change too.

If you do it - can you send me a link of which one's you get?

Sanj, I finish work on the 20th, so planned to do it on one of the days in that week, but looks like kkodal78 will do the hard work for me! kkodal78, have you sourced the LED replacements yet? If so what are the replacement LED's? I'm also going to do the lights on the front doors. Not sure about the others inside the vehicle, as a quite like the warm light, seems to to go with the tan leather ...
