I've heard people on the forum mention using leds but I do not know which brand is good. I have my M17's for about a week now and the color is already fading. If you find a good substitute let me know!

Question

I have a question,

I ordered a set of PolarG M17's off ebay. The package looks like it is in Japanese. Here is the problem, they do not fit?? The small prongs are evenly spaced arounf the base of the buld, as the factory bulbs seems to be offset. Any help would be appreciated.

You have to sand down one of the prongs, just to let you know these M17's do not last long.

Good Luck
