For those with the RE taillamp appique, these would be practial. For the rest of us, just expensive, but cool.

Thanks David for posting this. Ever since I installed HID's I've been wanting to upgrade my parking lights to something brighter than the "blue"bulbs.

Does anyone know what sizes the FD Parking wedge bulbs are?

 

I found it: http://www.eautoworks.com/html/Bulbs_search_action.cfm

 

That web page is way too visually busy to look at. I gave up.

 

They are 168/194. Get the Super White LED wedge bulbs. These things are nice because they're very bright.

 

The bulbs are also sometimes called W5W. I ordered two different types of white LED bulbs for my 99 lights from http://www.superbrightleds.com/1157.htm: a pair of the single LED bulbs, and a pair of the 4 LED bulbs. The single LED was way too dim. The 4 LED bulb was a bit too blue for me. I guess the choice is your's... either sort of blue, or ugly yellow.

Here's a very crude set of comparison pics: http://srdaugherty.home.insightbb.com/pics/

Scott,

Can you tell me which ones? I have 99 signals.. Mine are too yellow, especially with my HID's. I would like to get the 4 LED.. but don't know which bulb.. catalog number would be great..

Thanks!

Looks pretty sweet, Scott!

I have one concern. Does the white LED replacement really have much of a blue tinge to it, or was that a camera artifact? The police don't like seeing blue lights on civillian cars...

 

From the site I linked above, I bought catalog number WLED-W4 (4 LED). It looks like they've got a 5 LED model also, which is probably even brighter.

 

The digicam actually did a better job of showing the color difference than I anticipated. I don't know if the police would say anything or not, since the LEDs aren't much bluer than some of the HIDs I've seen on the road.
