Has anyone tried the Polarg bulbs in the interior light fittings? If they are 10W as opposed to the normal 5W I'm wondering if they would be too bright for interior use.
Hey Dan, do you not fancy trying the LED bulb sets from EM Tuning (T8ups) for your interior? I ordered a set from him last night and the beauty is they won't cause any DIS errors and have a very low power draw. xx
Ok... I bought the same LEDs. I thought they were a bit bright but like Warren have really come to like them
I hear what you're saying but I always have this niggling worry at the back of my mind regarding LEDs in terms of will they fail/overheat/fit/error. This is not based on any specific supplier or personal experiences, just forum threads over the years. Call it fear of the unknown.
I guess I'm old fashioned and with bulbs I know what I'm dealing with!

hi All,
i have put the order in for 50 pairs of these, i have been told they will take a week to make and get here, as soon as they are in i will test them in an Audi and make sure they are the ones what you are buying and then i can get a paypal link put up for the remaining members who didnt manage to order from the other seller before.
Thanks

Are these the LED or the halogen? These look the best that i have seen
"I'm actually in a similar situation, I purchased a set of the "Polarg B1 Hybrid" bulbs approx 6-8 months ago for my license plate (also tinted blue bulbs), I had them on for no problem. A couple days ago, when I wanted to switch from the blue bulbs to led(with resistors), I found out that the upper part of the housing (contact point to the hatch) was melted. Worried there might be a problem, I switched back to stock bulbs, but then both sides don't turn on and computer gives me a warning. "
These are the Halogen Polarg M28 B1 Hybrid Bulbs, the same as listed in the original post of this thread. They are lovely and pure white - with no hint of blue, unlike the cheaper Ebay ones listed elsewhere in the thread - and as you can see - they are bright enough to light up the whole reg number, but do not light up the whole rear end of the car and the floor, like the LED's. xx
Just seen the following on a golf gti forum. Apparently this happened to a few people.
I love my LED's now Even though my car is poorly. Ha.
Aww Grimp, the same thing happened to me, first time I swapped out the plate light bulbs. The screws Audi supply seem to be made of chocolate and if you even point a screwdriver at them they strip all by themselves, lol! I had to drill out the whole unit using a Dremel multi tool, ..was a PITA of a job!! I bought some M3 15mm hex headed screws in the end to make sure the same thing would never happen again. Unfortuantely Audi don't sell the screws separately from the light units, ..think I paid around £11 for a replacement unit. xx

Just to update on my Polargs, they melted both housings a little. I only noticed because 1 went out.
I'm back to the originals now and ordered some cheap ebay(5w) ones. Anyone else had any problems? can't see how they could be fitted incorrectly or anything.
