I found a good source of LED bulbs in the US. The company is Super Bright LEDs. Their web site is superbrightleds.comMHB

I see Ultraleds have stopped supplying the 4 element 501 sidelight bulbs. Anyone else know a good source other than Halfrauds at £9.99 a pair!!2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto
Edit: If the quad LEDs take your fancy, you can get 10 lamps for £19.25 including p&p with that discount I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

hmmm those "501 LED Extreme Power 1.5W 360 degree" look exactly like the ones I got from UltraLEDs which all failed within 6 months ..
Don't know what the 501 LED Quad Bulbs would be like .. (the pics are a bit small) they look like they would give off a reasonable 'sideways' light which is need for the front side-lamps
The UltraLEDs replacements I got seem OK but only time will tell to see how long they last
Oh, would you believe it there's reference to some kind of discount on that page too I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
With the constant blowing of these LED, do you think the result warrants the hassle?
"I know that you believe that you understood what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize that what you read is not what I meant"
Totally different type of LED.I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Hi Andy
Have ULTRALEDS definetely stop selling these or are they just not currently listed because they're out of stock? I emailed them recently about some light tower red stop and tails that I had bought but which suddenly disappeared from the site. They replied very quickly saying that they weren't discontinued and that they would be listed again when more stock had been received.

On your recommendation Stuart, I've just ordered the 'blues' you've fitted for my footwell and puddle lights.
Thought I would use the DISCOVER10 discount code again with ULTRALEDS but when I entered it a message flashed up saying that the code could only be used twice per customer!
