w211 number plate bulb recommendations

[christopherwk]

I suppose given the amount of time I drive at night, they always seem to keep blowing (every couple of months or so) - both bulbs and LED types.

The LED ones looks like they burn out somehow, when taken out there looks like brown/black marks on around the circuit board.

Can anyone recommend any suggestions for longer lasting ones?

Thanks.

Recommendation: check your voltage, as it sounds to me that bulb quality is not your root cause. The standard incandescents are fairly low-stressed bulbs and should last for years on average.

Autobulbs Direct - I have had no issues since switching to them

Irrelevant where you get your lamps (Bulbs grow in gardens!) if you have a voltage problem.

I can count on one hand the amount of tail lamps etc I've needed to replace in nearly 30 years of car ownership.

Sumats wrong up stream OP.

Deleted my post, after reading your quote again I realised I am an idiot and did not read your comments correctly!
