License Plate LED Bulb Replacement

Has anyone found or installed LED bulbs for their license plate lights? I know Lexus uses them, but not sure if there are rover-friendly bulbs to use. I think with the new LED bulbs throughout the car, the regular halogen license bulbs stand out more. I am stateside here so any websites ect that may be beneficial let me know!
Thanks In Advance!

Hi stateside
I changed mine for the same led bulbs that replace the front sidelights and also the interior lights.
A small tower bulb with 13 LEDs on each bulb

I had mine from Ultra Leds Ltd,

Stop and tail Red Ref No U38035R(380)35

I never put it in my other post, I also had the stop and tail bulbs, and they look even better.

the resistors are connected to the wires via a push through connector[cant remember the name of them] Embarassed
full wiring instructions are provided but if i can do it then anyone can.its only 2 wires

as for the led reg lights try boltonbits.com

That plate is in no way legal and you could end up with a 60 pound fine for each one.(front and rear)

the led sides and reg lights don't show warnings at all.the only ones that do anything are the indicator led's
they make the dash indicator bulb flash very fast(as if there is a light out)that is why a resistor is added across the indicator circuit to fool the system
I even had to add the resistor when fitting my d4 rear lights to my d3
not a hard job to do and well worth it
