This score indicates how well this product performs against a vehicle's CANBus warning system.
9/10 means that this product will work for most vehicles however there is always a chance a warning error will still appear.
Most modern cars today use a system to continuously detect faults – known as CAN-Bus. These bulbs are CAN-Bus enabled and will eliminate those annoying warning lights when your car thinks it has a faulty bulb.
Cree is the Rolls Royce of LED technology recognised the world over. Most major manufacturers of LED products use Cree LEDs. This particular bulb uses 6 Cree LEDs and is rated at 6000K giving off a 360 degree crisp cool white light.
Although your vehicle battery is used for all the electrics any saving in power has to be a good thing. These bulbs will give a greater light output (750 Lumens) than the standard bulb (300-400 Lumens) but use much less power - a win win!
One of the many advantages with LED bulbs over the standard is the length of time they will last. LED bulbs will significantly outperform standard replacement bulbs and should give 4000 hours or more of trouble free use. Unlike some other more inferior LEDs the light output with a Cree LED will not deteriorate over time.
We are so confident with this range that we offer a full no quibble 3 year guarantee....

Compared to the original filament bulbs, these are a vast improvement.
Advantages: Much deeper, brighter red.. No CANbus warnings on the dash.
Disadvantages: When connecting the ODB cable and checking, the computer does log an electrical fault on the circuit. This is on a 2014 Audi A6 Avant. A parallel resistor may require fitting to remove the error but still works fine.

Reasonably priced, seem good quality, very fast delivery
Advantages: Time will tell, all other led bulbs I’ve tried in my VW T5 have inevitably failed earlier than expected, I would like more than 12 months out of these, 5 Stars if they last more than that
Disadvantages: Time will tell, all other led bulbs I’ve tried in my VW T5 have inevitably failed earlier than expected, I would like more than 12 months out of these, 2 Stars if they last less than that

product seems good
Advantages: brighter than standard bulb
Disadvantages: Sadly not useable in my vehicle. (Fiat 500x 2017 model ).It does not dim the dlr's when headlights are turned on. Not only that when all system switched off including ignition ,the bulb is slightly illuminated all the time. So basically a complete disaster for me. Very disappointed. The car is the problem not the bulbs i guess

After trying different LED bulbs in the running lights of my Megane 3, these are the first CANBUS bulbs that do not continually flash. A bright white light which could even be mistaken for the headlights.
Advantages: Original 21 watt running lights bulbs cause the headlight cover to disclour due to heat, these bulbs are run cooler and do not damage the cover.
Disadvantages: None

These bulbs are perfect for the taillights of my BMW f20 lci. They don’t throw any error codes and look perfect. I installed them as brake lights and turn signals.
The shipping to NL was free, which was a nice surprise. It did take a long time to get here, but for free shipping it was reasonable. Overall I’m really satisfied with my purchase.

I bought 3 of these bulbs, 2 for the rear indicators and 1 for reversing light on my 2022 Seat Arona. The indicators are fine but the reverse light showed acanbus error. ABD were excellent when I contacted them (Kim) and exchanged the bulb for another more resistant to canbus issues (with free return and delivery of replacement) Not received new bulb yet so can't say if it works OK yet.
Advantages: The indicators are much brighter and sharper with the led bulbs than the original factory fit bulbs and stand out better against the bright led rear and brake lights. I have noticed with Aronas that when braking the factory fitted bulbs are not bright enough and are hard to see under braking which is, in my opinion, a safety issue.
Disadvantages: Only one I can see is the possibility of a canbus error but ABD have been excellent dealing with the issue I had with the reverse light bulb.

Literally the difference between night and day - reversing my 2003 L200 pick-up at night is now so much easier.
My truck is too old to have dashboard error lights for bulbs so can't comment.
Reasonable price and quick delivery.
This is the second time I've used ABD - very good clear website, ultra reliable, won't go anywhere else now
