Bought these for use in the interior of a 10th generation Honda Civic 2018. I didn’t like the factory supplied bulbs and these are a nice cost effective upgrade and are much brighter. Extremely easy to install, just need to note the polarity. Would buy again.
U can’t give any less than 5 stars for these bulbs as the unit itself is of high quality my hazards work perfectly but the turn signal blinks quicker so it would reduce the lifespan also I must note there are led bulbs out there for every car canbus free it’s just a case of looking for the correct ones Ie 581 for my vehicle code on the logbook
I bought in the hope of a slightly brighter indicator light, and it achieves that. Not too bright to be silly, just that extra edge.
What I hadn’t appreciated though was the additional benefit of a more distinct signal. Seeing a standard incandescent bulb side-by-side to this LED highlighted that the incandescent bulb doesn’t actually quite go out. The filament gets hot and the brief moment the power is off doesn’t give it chance to fully cool to nothing. The LED on the other hand is instantly on then off, making a more distinct, and hopefully noticeable, signal.
Do note though that on some cars, my 2014 RAV4 included, you will need to increase the resistance in the signal circuit otherwise you will experience fast flashing, hyper flashing. That is just because the LEDs draw less current than their incandescent equivalent and you need to add a resistor to mimic the original load. I went for the Osram LED driving 21 watt version as a respected brand. Whilst I only changed the rear indicator bulbs for LEDs I add the resistors to the front indicator wiring as it was easier to access and allowed me to mount the resistors onto readily available metal brackets in the engine bay (that they need as they get hot!).
I’m very impressed! I’ve got other Philips LEDs in other lights around the car and they’ve lasted years, so I’m confident that these will do the same.
Well done Philips, another great addition to car safety.
Decent light out put, but brings up error message on my Audi TT.
Audi’s are very sensitive on bulb output. So in defence of these, they don’t state they are error free.
