So you saying led number plate lights which are legal because cars come with them from the factory are illegal to fit as you said an insurance company refused to pay out when some where fitted.

I honestly get what you're saying but am I right to say if you don't fit exactly the same tyres fitted when new you're upgrading your car? I know I'm being padantic but it's the same thing.

I know I was typing away and seen it was wrong ?

You keep showing all these article's but it doesn't show anything that has shown insurance being invalidated...... If you think me and all the others who upgraded their headlight bulbs so they can actually see are breaking the law then that's up to you but if you actually seen a comparison...

No they didn't ? I'd love to see anything more than something in a newspaper..... Do you really think an insurance company could refuse to pay out because of a number plate bulb ? ? ? come on you're not that gulable surely.

? Good point ?

A bulb change is not a modification are you are putting the same type of bulb in..... I know what you're saying but you're confusing a modification with changing something like for like but a bit better.... If I fit a better performance tyre to my car is my insurance void... You know the answer...

Your insurance would not be void if you have an accident.... Your insurance is only invalid if you modify your car to look different or add performance.... Changing your headlight bulbs does neither.... Next you'll be saying that putting a different make of tyres from std will invalidate it too...

So we can all agree that putting led bulbs in the ZS is ok as it has projector lights and the beam cut off is exactly the same as the standard bulbs.

If you put decent led bulbs in you won't fail the mot because they don't dazzle and the beam pattern is just as good as the candles only you can actually see what's in front of you.... I also don't see it as modifying if you put an led hb3 bulb in as its just a bulb replacement not a...

Going to do that today and let it balance aswell.

i screen shotted this and although it doesn't go to 100% it gives you a good idea of what a healthy battery looks like.... I've checked mine against this and its at least 10 volts less which tells me something isn't right... Not had the bms update.

Feel like a right dope ? I plugged them in the way the clip was... It has a raised part where it holds the std light in.... Both sides snapped when I was taking the old bulbs out... Probably because of the cold weather ?

So just got these bulbs and plugged them in and they don't come on.... Anyone got any ideas?

The problem I have with this car is that you cannot drive it like a normal ev in that if you want to get 3kwh or more you have to crawl up to your desired speed.... If you're getting over 4 kwh and you're driving it without thinking ie crawling up to say 30 mph then there's something wrong with...
