Changing number plate globes to LED

[navtruckchic]

Hey all I have a 2010 d22 and am currently playing around with changing my lights to LEDs.
Just wondering if anyone can help me because what I bought online that are specified as 'navara number plate lights' are not the same as the ones that come off the ute. Can anyone give me any advice or help on this??


Left came off the ute, right are the LEDs

Please and thank you
Gordy

those wont replace what has come out as they are a wedged LED, try the web sire and see if that helps.

Thanks brad, the link doesn't work tho :/

It should. Try www.jaycar.com.au then in the search box. Type automotive led bulbs. There are a few pages of them also. Should find what you are looking for.

Thanks will check it out

Just had a look. They ran that cheap. The quality will be good tho.

Search the same thing in eBay and look for the base type you need. And then just make sure they are 12 volt.

You're a legend!!
How do I know if they'll fit tho??

 

[Navmania]

They look ok to the photo you posted. There arnt many different types of base. Only some have a twin contact on the bottom for duel element bulbs. Ie Tail/Stop lights.



Like this one.

Got ya! I'll check underneath and see if it's got 2 elements or 1.
Thank you sooooooo much for your help!
Wish i knew this before buying globes that are now useless

Your number plate ones will be single, blinkers single, stop/tail dual. Reverse, single. The one in your photo is a single.

The ones you got of ebay may fit your front Parkers

 

[navtruckchic]

Thanks brad!!!
Ok cool, I'll have a look at the front parkers and see if they fit in there then.

 

[navtruckchic]

So do u think these would fit the number plates then??

 

[Navmania]

From what I can tell. You will need T10's. Those ones you are looking at are T7's.

 

[navtruckchic]

These are t10 tho :/

Something like these. Measure your ones. If they are the same size they will work.
