Hi

You can buy LED's that dont bring on the Warning Lamp, they are more expensive however.

If you search for Can-Bus LEDs or 'Error free' LEDs you will find them. Plenty on eBay but I don't know how the quality will be  ???

You know, I really wouldn't bother with leds. There is minimal benefit on a car that wasn't designed for them.

I've only ever fitted them in lieu of normal number plate and sidelight bulbs. Aesthetically, they look much better on the number-plate than standard bulbs - but agreed, there is otherwise, little point
