one tip, if bulb doesnt work turn it round, they are pole sensitive. I had one in cabin and one in boot, great improvement although the boot one failed after 2 years.

I have ordered a 239 37mm festoon 6 wide angle led for the boot. Hopefully this is the correct one.

Which ones do I need for the number plate? 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Did all my interior lights, footwell x 2, glovebox, map reading x 2, front and passenger cabin roof, boot and number plate with white led's. Used http://stores.ebay.co.uk/partsulike-shop and http://stores.ebay.co.uk/fizzmo-uk for mine. Just be careful with the cabin ones as managed to blow fuse when fitting the drivers one.
