Has anyone used Sylvania 7506 LED for rear brake lights on R56?

on a side note, Ive been using these TGP's on my parking lights for about year and a half without any issues.

Here's a sweet deal on a pair of OEM fog light replacements. They are made by DEPOT lighting. Same as what ECS sells and these are 1/2 the price.

and

I made a list of light bulb types for R55 and R56 with pictures. Lamp replacement guide from Sylavania.com is so confusing and sometimes shows wrong bulb type(like 9003 for Mini cooper clubman headlight!!).

This list explains how many bulbs and what type of bulbs are installed in our Mini.
Let me know if there is any error on the list.

LED is the light of the future. It will replace our headlight soon^^

Yes, or LED postions are the same. If if you have the fog light option, then you have an additional fog light bulb.

Old thread but just got a new to me 08 R55, I've tried to replace the Rear Turn/Brake lights with LED. Tried some from amazon and some from eBay that say for a mini and error free. both have errors and blink fast.

I replaced this one previously with out issue, but don't want to spend this much per bulb (https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ziza-par...r55ledrevktkt/)

Does anyone have links to the P21's that actually work

One problem you’ll have is with the brake light. The early Clubman used a single filament bulb fed with different voltage for running light and brake light. You won’t get that with an LED.
