where to buy LEDs?
I got some new lights at a landrover show. Great things, clear and bright. Theres hole in em for sidelights, which I got these white LEDs. Looked great and really bright. But unfortunately one of them has blown. I suspect my old dodgy wiring.
Any one know where i might be able to get some of these LEDs?

LED's are a bit temperamental. They are easily damaged by vibration, heat and excess voltage. I tried some in the Scoob sidelights but they lasted about a month before starting to flicker and loosing one LED at a time (cluster of 6 in each fitting). I believe this was down to the Scoob alternator pushing out 14.1V instead of 12V. The ones I had in the indicators were fine, but they're only on in very short bursts whereas the sides were on permanently.
