Default Vanity mirrors lights

Any one made them brighter? Existing ones are useless. 2007 Q7.

I guess they aren't bright so they don't blind you while you look at the mirror.

Your first step is finding out how to remove the bulbs to see if a larger wattage can be sourced

Did you write-up the change over of your other leds?

I just picked up my 2014 Q and I'm stunned that there are no internal leds, even our Honda has some.

According to the Bentley Manual, the bulb cannot be replaced. The entire sun visor has to be replaced. An expensive part for a inexpensive bulb.
