Hi Dave,
Thanks for this write up. I\'ve just followed these instructions and used a 21w red LED lamp and was very please with the ease and simplicity it could be done with a neat outcome. One difference noticed was the the wire running to my fog light switch was white where the one above was yellow.....minor confusion for a second ;-)
 
Cheers

I used this.

works fine. It\'s a P21W fitment IIRC you need. I would imagine there are cheaper suppliers out there tho. Have a search.
