🔦 Pair of Putco 287401A Neutron Amber 7440 LED Bulbs Review

Perfect upgrade for my Golf R LED taillights, they are brighter than the halogen/incandescent bulbs that come with the taillights and also have a clearer view when the turn signal is on. No error codes and very bright even in daylight.

Just installed them as turn signals on my Golf Mk6 - no error messages, easy installation. I wouldn't say they're necessarily brighter than regular ones, but they seem just as bright, which suits me. Will post updates if anything out of the ordinary happens.

They worked very well in our 2007 Fit but were not as effective in our 2013 Accord due to the recessed reflectors used. If you're using them for turn signals (what else would you use 7440 amber bulbs for), you'll probably need to add terminators to keep the burnt bulb warning from flashing rapidly.

If you buy cheap shit like me you end up paying more. i'm screwed The wires were thin, so they pulled out of the bulb when you took it out of the lamp socket. Putco lamps have a good thick wire, just like the wires of a floor lamp. So if you need to remove them, don't tear them.

They fit perfectly on my 2011 GTI with OEM Golf R LED rear wheels but had no effect. The best test is full daylight, not a stupid night test. The match looks bright at night. In broad daylight they break through. They are at least as bright as standard halogen. In addition, they have excellent LED properties for instant on and off. This effect differs from the slight decay delay of even very good halogens. Highly recommended if you are interested in LEDs and as said, an easy swap out with OEM…
