HI,
I have just bought a brand new mini, i am looking to change the bulbs in the footwells and under the door, ( the ones that light when the door is opened ) to LED bulbs in xenon white or possible red. Does any body know the size of these bulbs or a place i can purchase them?
PLEASE HELP ME lol
cheers

Just moving your question to Interior & Ice (rather than 2nd Gen Interior & Ice)

I also deleted the duplicate thread that you created. With that said, have you checked out NewMINIStuff.com ?

why not take them off and have a look? you dont even need to look at them to be able to drop them out..

anyways they are standard sidelight bulbs (501 W5W) and as they point forward in the holder LED's would be useless because you wont get hardly any light output..
you want to use these for a xenon white light 501/W5W Xenon :: Upgrade Sidelight Bulbs :: Autobulbs Direct Ltd - Xenon bulbs, car bulbs, wiper blades, headlight, Osram, Ring, Philips

and these for coloured light 501 W5W Coloured Sidelights :: Upgrade Sidelight Bulbs :: Autobulbs Direct Ltd - Xenon bulbs, car bulbs, wiper blades, headlight, Osram, Ring, Philips

any motor factors should have them, or that site has better prices and i have used them before myself.
