Re: LED Sidelights.
See, I've always had a problem with LED side lights on my Polo. I've tried several sets and none of them ever work. The normal side lights work just fine so I know it's not a connection problem. The LED versions slot nicely in with the connectors connecting where they should but when I turn the side lights on I get nothing. What could be going wrong?

Re: LED Sidelights.
LED lights are polarised so will only work one way around. It they dont work one way, turn them round and see what happens

I'm pretty sure I tried that but I'll give it one more try. Cheers for that
Re: LED Sidelights.
Any luck with your bulbs dude?.As alex says it's polarity contious,after all it is a diode.I hope they work on my headlights,should do though especially if other people are running them.
