Wanting to change for something brighter.
It's a Caravelle so lots of them
Anyone any recommendations?
C5w is the bulb. 10 for 2.99 on eBay or Phillips ones at 15 quid each?
Big price difference and I need 9 of those
Also need 6 501 5w5 bulbs, again price varies widely, any advice?

I bought no-name brands from ebay and am very disappointed by the brightness. I'll be looking to change agin once I have the time.

Put replacement led bulbs in my transporter, different colour of light but nowhere near as bright as the standard ones.

If it's a modern car/van make sure it's can bus error free or it can play havoc with the electric system thinking there is a faulty bulb because the amp draw is so low. Same for side lights etc.

Canbus isn't an issue with interior lights on a t5.1, no error message given when one fuses
