You cannot just insert an LED where an incandescent bulb was located. You need the proper resistor for the LED to be set into the circuit first ! Just put back the right bulb. It will outlast your ownership, unless you intend to keep that van until your over 100 ! I have them on my Vanagon New Parts webpage, if you cannot find them elsewhere.
Bulb, blue, high beam indicator, 357 919 062 - $6.45 CAD

Please note that I will be away from my business travelling from December 06 until April 30, 2011. Parts orders will be processed although not as quickly as usual. I will always be available for contact by E-mail. If you phone your call will be addressed by Greg T. Brown here and he will either call you back or advise you to contact me directly by E-mail. Details of this adventure are on our Travel Blog: http://frankcondelli.com/travels/
