GROUP BUY: W5W Canbus LED (Round 2)

GB Notes
We're back for round two. If you haven't been paying attention or new to the forums, we've already held a group buy for these LEDs, but turns out these were from a reseller in Sweden. We have since been able to track down the manufacturer in Korea and cut a deal with them, and now bring these back to the forums for all forum members to enjoy. Once again, I take no responsibility for these LEDs and serve as an intermediary and distributor.

A history of these products can be seen here:
https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...anbus-led.html
https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...ew-thread.html

To add yourself to this GB, please add yourself to the running list. Do NOT spam me with PMs asking to be added. Just copy-paste the latest update and add yourself. Please use the following format:
1. Username : 4 (WARM WHITE) : Unpaid
2. Username : 2 (PURE WHITE), 4 (COOL WHITE) : Unpaid

I will change the "Unpaid" to paid when I collect payment. (This is basically for the forum members to egg on slackers who wait till last minute to pay, holding up the GB :p).

The group buy STARTS NOW and will END FRIDAY with ALL PAYMENTS DUE MONDAY (18th) the following week.

Product Description
Finally on the market, a LED bulb safe for Canbus cars like new Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Skoda, VW etc.

Suitable for 204 Eyebrows, Sidemarkers, License Plate, and All Interior (except for the single festoon in the rear dome). These throw NO errors. These are dual emitter LEDs that are ideal for housing illumination.

Bulb: W5W, T10, 501, 194.
Volt: 9-14VDC
LED: 2pcs SMD 3xChip
Color Temp:
- WARM WHITE - 4300K
- PURE WHITE - 5500K - 6000K
- COOL WHITE - 6500K - 7000K
Mass: 9,7x25,3x5,3mm

Pricing
Each set includes 2 LEDs. (Note: W204 Eyebrows require 4 LEDs, so you'll need 2 sets)

Each Set is prices as follows:
US: $15 shipped per set, up to 5.
Canada: $16 shipped per set, up to 5.

For orders of more than 5, please PM me for extra shipping costs as I can't fit more than 5 in a regular sized envelope and will have to switch to manilla and have to recalculate shipping costs. Items will be shipped via USPS First Class and USPS First Class International. If you wish for speedier, tracking, or insurance services, I can do that as well, just PM me your request and I'll calculate out a total.

Payment
Please paypal me at michaelctao@hotmail.com in US Dollar. Include your username, address, and number of sets. I update paid status every morning so don't worry if you paid and don't see me post "Paid" like immediately.

Moderators
This group buy was cleared by Mr. Vanos.

I have decided to get them for the interior as well along with the eyelid.
Just to confirm, please correct me if my math below is wrong:
4 bulbs for eyelid + 9 bulbs for interior = 13 bulbs = 7 sets with one bulb spare.

PM sent for shipping info + extra charge.

Are these the ones that started off really white but ended up turning blue/purple after being used for a short amount of time?

I was on the first group buy and was originally going to use these LEDs on my eyelids, but went a totally different route, via full LED strips on the eyelids.

I have 3 sets of these guys, and now not knowing what to do with them. I tried to use them for internal lighting dome (front & rear) and even on my trunk, but not lighting up... Shouldn't they work for the interior as well or am I missing something?

Thanks.

They do work, but only plugged in the correct orientation. If it doesn't light up, flip the LED around and plug it back in.
