Hi everyone,
got a Passat from 2002 and have been very bored and been browsing the
interne, which normally ends up in me spending money :-)

I`ve seen some LED sidelight bulbs that are apparently street legal but
brighter than normal filament bulbs - anyone actually seen them, and are
they any good?  And a similar question for some replacement brake bulbs i`ve
seen that light up quicket than filament bulbs, giving slightly more notice
to the vehicle behind you that you`ve just stood on the brakes, with the
hope that the extar notice prevents you being rear-ended.  I know it`s a
fraction of a second, but that could work out to be a few m in distance
travelled depending on the speeds involved.

Anyone got any opinions, other than to find something more productive to do
with my time?  ;-)
