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....

Unfortunately these didn't work and gave bulb out warning (Seat Arona). Having said that it was far brighter than the standard one and it's a shame couldn't keep it. Returned for a refund no issues.

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.

Bought to replace original 21w incandescent bulbs, should have done it years ago.
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
Advantages: Super bright - make reversing at night much much easier.

After deliberating a while (because these are not cheap!) I made my purchase after reading other customers’ reviews.
There are lower-priced alternatives available on a popular auction site, but with no quality control; how bright will they *really* be? How long will they last? And will the colour temperatures even match?
I decided that I didn’t want the hassle and the cost of my spare time returning some cheap tat!!
These lamps are incredibly bright, they are a straight one-for-one swap with the old incandescents and I haven’t seen any CAN bus grumbles. Brilliant!
Advantages: Very bright with a good spread of light; it’s like having a set of headlights for going backwards!
Disadvantages: I much prefer warm white LEDs especially as I have an older car with halogen headlamps, but there’s no option for this. This is just a choice thing, meh…

First class service from ABD with delivery the day after order on their standard delivery setting!
I needed to lower the current demand for the brake lights on my caravan (4 x 21 watt halogen bulbs) to avoid problems with canbus. Swapped the upper brake lights for LEDs, the twenty20 design replicates the filament position of the halogen bulb so looks the same. May change the lower bulbs 5/21 watt side/brake light bulbs later.
Advantages: Lower current draw avoided canbus problems between Ford car and Bailey caravan. Design of the bulb replicated the filament position of the halogen bulb so light intensity and focus were identical.
Disadvantages: None really. More expensive than some bulbs, but the quality was evident from the start.

Direct replacement for Daytime Running Lights on a Passat which used standard 21w bulbs. Easy to fit and no canbus issues. These are considerably brighter than the standard filament bulbs so do a good job. I am glad I chose these rather than the brighter ones on offer as I think they would have been too bright and cause dazzle to oncoming traffic.

Fitted to My Skoda Octavia 2.0ltr L&K reverse lights.. Big improvement in brightness with no errors. very pleased with the bulbs and service. I was mildly disappointed that these two bulbs plus the two indicator light bulbs, ordered at the same time, were all put in a plastic tube that allowed them to rattle around and bang against each other. I would have thought that, if these are usually sent loose, some form of packling could have been used to prevent them moving around. No damage occured but the packing could still have been better, IMO.
