LED's causing fire...

[Anonymous]

...soooo i spoke to one of my buds who drive a 6R Polo GTI.... apparently the LED's he fitted to the Polo made a short and concked out the electrics.

Any of you guys experienced this? My LED's arrived in the post but now I am to darn scared to fit them :thumbdown:

(ok so the causing fire bit was just to get your attention but shorting out electrical systems is just as bad olice: )

I've had my LEDs fitted since August last year and I've not had any problems with them. I just have my side lights / DRLs done but there are a few others who have fitted these plus more without issue.

A short is a short no matter what bit of kit causes it. In theory a badly made filament bulb could cause the same issue as a badly made led. So I'd just echo the above, the chances of having problems diminishes greatly with quality parts.

Nah a story is just a retelling of events. It can be fact or fiction.

Maybe the real question, how do i tell the difference between a good LED and a crap LED?

Like I always say. You get what you pay for. Unless of course you allow yourself to get ripped off and then you pay for what you don't get. :lol:

That's easy: install it in your car, and when it makes a short it was a crap one...

Yes and you didn't buy it from us too! (as if they do short out as we do not sell crap bulbs)

I checked your prices and although they are pretty good your shipping didnt have SA on the list. So i found ones that cost around the same as yours, with 1 year warranty but with free shipping to South Africa.

If you add South Africa to your list i will start using you :beer:

We will add SA to the shipping destination for the bulbs, not had this request before.

So I clear up what I said above about "...and you didn't buy it for us too!", this was aimed at if they do short out as we do not sell crap bulbs :thumbup:
