[QUOTE="rod_vw, post: 2216491, member: 29731"] Now owning a vehicle (Volkswagen T6) with factory fitted LED lights both front and rear I am wondering what the law/rules are in various European countries regarding a requirement to carry spare bulbs. My headlights and DRLs along with rear lights and brake lights are integral LED units. Obviously I cannot carry four complete light units as spares just in case one fails neither could I expect to be able to easily obtain spares from a European dealer to be able to supply RHD headlight units off the shelf should one fail. Do any readers know what is now expected of motorists in Europe regarding light failures and/or the carrying of spare parts on such LED equipped vehicles? Logic says that a driver should replace/repair those lights that can be fixed on the roadside but these modern LED units are a very different story. Your thoughts please. [/QUOTE]
