Just received my complete LED kit from JWmotoring. the LEDs all look like what I was expecting but there are 2 rectangular ones that I have no idea what to do with. Anyone with experience on this have an answer?
Okay i'll take a look. Was just off-put by their appearance, thought i'd have to do some complicated electrician stuff. But i'll take a look in the hatch and will probably better understand..
The kit i ordered was just a sack full of the red ones.. im obviously missing those yellow ones and the rectangles for the hatch... albeit I did get mine from ebay... lame.
Yeah those just loop around the contacts for the trunk lights. The lights in the mirror are a pain. Make sure you get the lights to turn off before removing otherwise you are pulling the lights off while they are lit, and they get hot. For me I wrapped a little piece of masking tape around the bulbs to get a better grip on them and was able to get a pair of needle nose pliers in there enough to wiggle them back and forth. Some use dental floss and loop it around the lights (didn't work for me). wiggling them got them out easier.

That is almost the same light used in the footwells of the C4. C6 hatch lights I am talking about. Technology marches on. Lol
The smaller yellow ones are for the front side markers, they are smaller due to less room under the plastic of the marker. And I got my latch ones on, did burn myself a bit, didn't think they would get that hot that quickly! Lesson learned.
I also bought amber and red for side markers, and was under the impression that I could simply pull the side markers out, and now it doesn't seem like the case..

For the rear ones remove the outer tail light. Reach in and squeeze the tabs on the marker lens to remove.
For the front you need to remove some of the push pins on the wheel well liner to reach the side marker.
