Vanity Mirror Light Bulb Stock part number?
 
Looking to verify that this would be the correct LED replacement?

3710 LED Bulb - 3 SMD LED Festoon - 38mm



This is the Stock #: 6418 I came up with at a site called :

https://www.superbrightleds.com/vehi...=441&year=2010

Just hoping someone may have replaced these before and verify that this bulb will work and maybe give me a heads up on how to remove the old ones?
My daughter has the car so I can't check it out until tomorrow evening, so I have no clue if it is simple or a pain?

Thanks!

Normally fitting LED bulbs gives a bulb out warning you have to put an extra resistor in. Have you Googled vanity mirror light bulb beetle changing?

Yes, I have always had to use them on led blinker bulbs to keep them from hyper-flashing too.
So I just ask the seller on ebay that has some i am looking at, and he said I would not have to install a load resister on this VW. But we will see. If I do I will probably just forget it and return them, before I screw with this German wiring on this little Beetle.
Oh by the way. Do you know by chance exactly how long the MAP LIGHT bulb is? I think it is either 36mm, 37mm, or 38mm.?
Thanks for the reply!
