Quick update, I bought the latest MTEC number plate lights for Mrs Docs 35d for £39 on fleabay and although they only have two LEDS in each pod they give off the same light output to the ones previously fitted, pics to follow (if required)

Hi. Can you tell me if they are brighter than the original BMW bulbs.?
Im after upgrading my number plate lights, so it shines more light onto the tow bar , so i can see when im hooking up my trailer at night/dull conditions. :) :)

Hi,

Yes you get a fair amount more light shed onto the ground over the standard ones, I'll take a photo when I get 5.
