I'm looking to replace the Parking light bulbs in my car since I bought Hyper white bulbs. I don't want the light housings to look blue though, I'm really interested in a pure white look. A tint of blue is cool though, but nothing that screams "Hey, those headlights are BLUE!" You know?

So, I was wondering about LEDs. I saw these suckers in an ebay auction, and wanted to know if they can be bought elsewhere, and what their color is in the headlight assembly.

Anyone have this kinda thing?

Also, are the same bulbs used in the license plate area as the parking lights?

Thanks everyone!

Don't buy any LEDs to replace a regular bulb. The lack of inductance in the bulb will screw with your electrical system. Search around for the guys that had to have their wiring redone after they fried their tail light circuits.

I've had mine for more than a year and I haven't had any problem with anything electrical.

Wow, now we're getting somewhere! So there's a danger of frying my electricals with LEDs?! Hmmm...

MidnightKraze, exactly what brand do you have? And do you have pics? Did you replace parking AND the licens plate lights?

Hehe, I too have an LEDs on my parking light and I haven't had any problems at all. The thing is, mine were around $20 bucks a pair and it's not the same once as you see above...

Clone's right, LED bulbs draw a lot less power than a standard incandescent bulb. It could f

Mine look almost the same except they were sent from Japan and then I found out that they sold those in your pic here. Here is a link of what mine look like:

I just got mine today from that link MidnightKraze put down. They shipped very fast, I think just like 3 days it took. Anyway, they look dope! Imma check em out tonight with no light.

Also. I didn't know this. But where it says 4 bulbs, it doesn't mean you get 4 different bulbs. It means you get 2 LED lights with 4 bulbs in each light.

So, if you actually want 4 LED lights (2 parking, 2 side-markers) you need to order two of the 4 bulb thing, or 2 of the 2 bulb thing. Just a little FYI!
