501 LED sidelights won't fit!

[Veyron]

Hi, i have had LED sidelights in the past and decided to buy some more (first time in dual reflector headlights) but they willnot click into place! Has anybody else had this?

do they have 4 or more LEDs by any chance

Hmmm iv got the 8 LED sidelights... they didnt exactly 'click' into place.. but slotted in and still work fine.

I had to file down the sides of both of my sets of 501 LED's to enable them to fit into the bulb holder. Doesn't take too long but it is a fiddly job.

ive got 5 led ones and fit just fine although cracked the holder as i pushed too hard lol... its a very weak fit, they dont really click into place more of a slot and hope they are in job ... dam cheap plastic holders. amazing what a bit of insulation tape does

Ive got 25 led ones and they fit fine

ive had a mare with sidelights i think im getting ones too cheap they keep breaking lol.

Yeah I had the same problem, just had to file the edges down. but then by the amount of times ive had the holders in and out one wouldn't click in so i had to wrap it in electrical tape and wedge it.

I have the prism ones and they went in fine, not really a click more a tight fit but can't see them going anywhere and they've been fine since December
