Just a quick question ref side light bulbs, I think the nasty yellow colour ones look naff and was wondering if anyone has upgraded to LED's

Give Knightracer a call and get the can us ones as they give out a nice crisp white light and they're a doodle to fit

You can. Just get some w5w led bulbs. You don't need canbus ones on the GTR ... I paid £3

While your at it get the rear number plate bulbs aswell. You are replacing capless 501 bulbs with capless W5W led bulbs.
About 2 quid a pair on ebay. Make sure you get short ones for the rear. Piece of pi $$ to fit.

Don't bother fitting LEDs to the sidelights as they will fall apart with the heat from the main bulbs. Have a look at this link, I found out the hard way!
Use PIAA Xtremewhite H-222, been in for over a year and still look good.

Have to disagree. I've had my LED's in for over a year, and they've been perfect.

Yeah think mine have been in for 2.5 years now without issue....suppose some better quality items than others.

Do you mean the front lights side light? I've got SMD replacements and they are very bright and look nice
