Numberplate lights all fitted just need coding now

Looking good    They're very bright, are they the SuperSkoda ones?

No I used these.

Appear to be genuine vw.

Ahh yes, I have those only I got them from Skoda, not there...should've recognised the pattern in the reflection really    I suspect Skoda may charge slightly more for them though  :peek:

Did skoda code them for you?

No, andyvee very kindly coded them for me

Forgive the possibly naive question but coding a bulb? What's that all about?

Forgive the possibly naive question but coding a bulb? What's that all about?

LED lights draw less power than 'normal' halogen bulbs. When the power usage drops, as it does when a bulb fails or you put in an LED, the car thinks that the bulb has failed and therefore throws up a bulb-out warning on the dashboard.

Coding is changing the setting in the cars computer to LED instead of normal, thereby preventing the bulb out warning.

Ahhh, ok, that makes sense, coding the ecu not the bulbs... that's what was throwing me
