LED bulbs

I want to replace the front side lights and the rear registration plate lights on my 2003 GS TD4 with white LED's

I think the front ones are push fit W5W, but will I need the Canbus type? Or is that only a worry on higher spec models with a trip computer?

My main question though is, what type are the two small registration plate bulbs in the rear door handle? These seem to be a twist fit directly on to a small circuit board, but the existing bulbs on mine don't have any markings to identify them?????

All suggestions (for suitable bulbs) gratefully anticipated!

Don't all rush at once, sometime before the clocks go back will be fine....

Replaced my front side lights, but not the others.
See the results on my website.

Hi , well i changed my front sidelight w5w bulbs for leds with 6 leds on one bulb, they looked great but only lasted about a week before 2 or 3 of the little leds went down, i sent them back to supplier who exchanged them but you guessed it after a week they went down too.
So its back to the old types bulbs .
As far as i can remember the number plate bulbs are the same ....oh and i didnt need canbus on my 2002 td4 but the supplier will advise you on that

I fitted LED reg lights the bulbs push into the black holders very straight forward

Don't forget that your vehicle may fail an MOT or roadside check if it has LED bulbs fitted to bulb holders designed for filament bulbs so just be aware.
