LED License plate bulb

I wanted to change my license plate bulbs to LED's so I bought the Sylvania 168/194 Led Bulb I replaced them and now it's giving me a bulb out warning light. Does anyone know what LED bulbs that won't give a warning light?

Contact InDaClubMan. Mine flickered and the ones he sold me took care of the issue. I think it was like $20 for a full set of leds for the mini

We have the Ziza ones here, no flicker . No bulb out error. Tested and been working in my R52 and R58 for years. Nice color and match other Ziza LEDs.

At $49.95 a pair, they had better!

CANBUS LEDs are what you want, unless you want to wire in your own resistors or if you want to code out the bulb checks.

The Ziza LEDs are pricey, yes, but you will get bright, error-free, reliable LEDs.

I used the Ziza LED bulbs without issue. They're great.

Yep, thanks They also ask as a back up light helps at night as they throw light to the ground a little.

I'm very pleased with the quality of my Ziza LEDs. They are bright and error free. If you want something inexpensive try ledautomotive or superbrightleds.
