Default LED rear Numberplate Lights

Hi Guys,

I've been seeing a lot of new 3 series with the LED rear numberplate lights, just like the Lexus, then stumbled on a crapy ford fiesta with them.

Got me thinking, they look pretty cool, and wondered if anyone had them. and what exact bulb is it?

Rear lights are a festoon fitting. Be warned on an R56 they will activate the bulb out warning. They do look cool though! I think there are some on eBay now which don't trigger the warning.

Here is link to the ones fitted to 3 series which I think someone has fitted to a MINI, think these come with neccessary fitting to avoid light out warning on R56
