LED Fog Lights

Featured Replies

Looking at changing the last no led bulbs on the car. What have people used to change the fog lights to LED??

No one?

You'd have to change the housing, you can't just (legally) change the bulbs. Even changing your number plate bulbs from filament to LED is illegal if the housing isn't type-approved for LED. It's not an MOT failure unless the colour temp is wrong, but it's illegal and potentially invalidates your insurance. You need to find units that are type approved for LED use. No idea if they are available.

I know you are unlikely to get type approved LED fog lights. Front Fog lights as far as I know are not tested on the MOT as they are not fitted on every vehicle on the road.

 

I’ll have a look around online.

 

I’m not sure the MOT testers would know whether the car was fitted LED’s anyway, the FL MK 3 has LED dogs as far as I know?

 

Cheers.
