I want to change the interior lighting to blue led. I think I need basically.
6 x 5w5 led (includes extra 2 for number plate)
2 x 31mm festoons

My problem is there is soo many bulbs available its confusing.
For example what is all this about needing canbus compatable leds. Is that correct?
Plus some bulbs have so many leds on them I'm sure they won't fit.

Does anyone sell kits or can someone please recommend the ones I need.
Thanks.

P.s.this is for a 65 plate qq

No kits, and the number plate ones must be white. Regarding 'canbus', im not electrically minded so cant advise, other than to tell you to use the search facility on this site. Over the ladt 18 months or so loads of people have posted either issues or solutions regarding interior lighting etc.

Check these bad boys out for example. Surely they won't fit?

QQ1234, I am by no means electrically minded but this is what I have done to our QQ and it was worthwhile. Please take a look at the attachments and see if it helps - Dave :)
