| 2721 are 1.2W each and close to original but slightly dimmer. 2723 are 2.3W each and much brighter but your switch dimmer windings will heat up and burn out sooner. So if you like them bright use the 2723 and don't dim them much. If you like dim use the 2721. There is also a 2722 which is 2W each. I think I read somewhere the originals were 1.8W each so I don't know why no one ever mentions the 2722 as a replacement. |

Your owners manual has the bulb listing.
Some of our VW parts suppliers, such as Airhead, list them by the VW number.
And FLAPS should also be able to cross-reference the numbers. |
