Also, I haven't fitted resistors yet to see if they will stop that.
So, this is what I would buy now, very small chip but CREE chips are extremely bright. I've got CREE chips on my DRLs and they are amazing.

Don't forget to buy 2, price for each.

First off I have to give great credit to the thread starter as it's attention to detail, it's descriptive posting is some of the best that I've seen in all the times I've been on forums and I'm ex MLR and I thought those boys were particular! This is great! If only ever post was like this I would say it would be almost time to say good buy to dealers altogether for repairs!
Secondly I've noticed the ebay link in the quote above, I currently have lED bulbs in mine, yeah they're not bad... But previously
I've had the ones that are the complete units so that they replace the whole unit including the exterior face of the lens... Does anyone know the correct place or have a link for the ones that fit out D3's as I've had three different sets in my hands and none of them got as they were all the wrong size! I would really like a set bug struggling to find the correct ones for that really intense bright white rear number ok ate illumination. Anyone able to help point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance... regards, Mark.

Future Plans:
Selling my current Audi A8 Quattro Sport and replace is with a newer D4 Audi A8L with the 4.2V8 Twin Turbo setup once again it must be black. I'm looking for one with the options added where it has the rear recliing seats, with heated outers. Bose speakers minimum and B&O's if affordable. Rear and back door sun blinds prefered.
Planned Mods:
Upon the arrival of my A8L D4, I will be once again having the ECU remapped to a performance setting over economy. Rear Tints as dark as can go whilst also tinting the front windows with a medium tint. Once again I will be purchasing lowering links for the air ride suspension and setting it at 55mm lower when in comfort as my desire rideheight over standard. Alloys will be 21" however the one current most likly to be the next car already has a brand new set of 2016 S8Plus wheels on it.
