Key Features At A Glance
3030 SMD
7 High-Output LEDs Seven modern 3030 SMD LED chips provide strong, responsive illumination from a compact automotive bulb.
OPTICAL LENS
Forward Light Projection The forward-facing optical lens complements the side-mounted LEDs and helps distribute light from the end of the bulb.
METAL BODY
Passive Heat Management A metal-bodied construction helps transfer heat away from the LED components without requiring a cooling fan.
Modern Vehicle Compatibility
CANBUS Ready & 12V–24V
Integrated electronics are designed to improve compatibility with vehicle bulb-monitoring systems and reduce warning messages commonly associated with low-current LED replacements.
CANBUS compatibility varies by vehicle. These bulbs are designed to reduce bulb-out warnings, but vehicle monitoring systems differ between manufacturers and models. Some applications may still require an additional resistor, decoder or other corrective component.
Engineered Construction
Designed For Reliable LED Performance
The LED chips, integrated driver electronics, metal housing and forward optical lens are combined into a compact direct-fit bulb format for compatible W21W / 7440 single-function applications.
Three LED Light Colours
Choose White, Amber Or Red
Choose the LED colour that matches the original single-function lighting application and required light colour of your vehicle.
WHITE
For compatible W21W white-light applications such as reverse lights, DRLs or other single-function positions where a white bulb is specified.
AMBER
For compatible W21W indicator and signalling applications where an amber single-function light source is required.
RED
For compatible single-function rear-lighting applications such as stop or rear fog lights where a red W21W bulb is specified.
Vehicle Applications
Match The Colour To The Lighting Function
W21W / 7440 is a single-intensity bulb format. The exact application varies by vehicle, so always confirm the original bulb specification and required light colour before ordering.

? Frequently Asked Questions +
Are W21W and 7440 the same bulb type?
W21W and 7440 are commonly used references for this single-function T20 automotive wedge bulb format using a W3x16d base.
What is the difference between 7440 and 7443?
7440 / W21W is a single-function, single-intensity bulb using a W3x16d base. 7443 / W21/5W is a dual-function, dual-intensity bulb using a W3x16q base. Similar appearance does not mean they are electrically interchangeable.
Which colour 7440 LED bulb should I choose?
Select the colour required by the original vehicle lighting function: White for compatible white-light applications, Amber for compatible indicators or signalling, and Red for compatible single-function rear red-light applications.
Are these 7440 LED bulbs CANBUS error free?
They include CANBUS-ready electronics designed to reduce bulb-out warnings, but compatibility varies between vehicles and some applications may still require additional resistance or decoding.
Can the Red 7440 version be used for brake or rear fog lights?
Yes, where the vehicle uses a W21W / 7440 bulb for that individual single-function red-light application. A 7440 bulb does not provide the separate tail and brake intensities of a W21/5W / 7443 bulb.
Can the White version be used as a reverse light?
Yes, on compatible vehicles that specify a W21W / 7440 bulb for the reverse-light position. Always confirm the original bulb specification before ordering.
Are these W21W LED bulbs suitable for 24V vehicles?
The bulbs are designed for compatible 12V–24V DC vehicle electrical systems.
How many 7440 LED bulbs are supplied?
The price is for one pair containing two bulbs in the selected White, Amber or Red colour.
What warranty is supplied?
HIDS-DIRECT supplies the pair with a 1-year warranty.
