Thanks. 

More the Zaf I'm looking to do. May do the Omega boot

Previous owner of my Fortwo fitted a led festoon to the interior lamp (& cracked it in the process  ) Though it's far brighter in use than a normal filament lamp, it never quite goes out ..... it's always glowing slightly.

It 'should' work, the interior lights are dimmed on/off so its dependent on what the mosfet driver thinks of the active load

Thanks. I did read I would loose the dim feature with LED, but not fussed at that.

Might pop down Halfords during the week with the trade card!

I bought mine from Ebay for about £1 each; the Omega uses a combination of 36 and 39mm festoon bulbs for the puddle lamps, boot lamp, rear courtesy lamps and number plate lamps. I don't remember what went where as they're fit and forget. The front courtesy lamp and map lights use 501 bulbs like the sidelights; I found these to be a bit more fussy as the ones I was given didn't work. All of the others I've bought since do, and they dim correctly which was a surprise.

The Omega interior light comes in 2 different forms (actually more, but just 2 for this conversation), so anyone buying for Omegas, double check first

Just put an LED light in boot of the 3.2, wow! Huge, huge difference. Completely illuminating the boot now, should have done this ages ago. Will swap out others now
