well this is the wide angle 5 bulb leds...

as of yesterday i noticed 2 of the leds in the bulb started blinking now my car looks like it has strobe lights

the other one doesnt have any problems...

hmm bulb lasted about 7 months

 

Took pics last night but went right to bed... I'll add my pics soon.

 

I think the heat from the headlights are killing the led's? I have one burnt out on the front, and I've had the leds for about 5 months as well.

 

im guessing that is the cause... leds last long in normal use/environments

 

OK... Here are my pics: I replace the front parking & license plate bullbs with a white wedge type 194 LED. I replace the front turn signal bulbs with a chrome/amber bulb; look chrome / flash amber. And last I replaced the reverse bulbs with a 15 LED 7440 LED. I ordered my LEDs from VLED and found the bulbs on E-Bay. Anyhow on to the pics:

Nice pics guys

 

Those are very good pics. I have similar bulbs and those pics give a good representation as to what the LED color actually looks like in real life. The parking light LED's DO NOT match the stock HID's after they've warmed up. So looking head on at the headlights, you have these little blue dots of light, which throw the look off IMO. They look nice, but be warned, the color is off.

 

robert -

does the license plate light up blue like the parking bulbs or white?

is it pretty bright?

im looking for some leds for the license plate but want one that lights up white.

 

Everything is white... The blue look on the parking lights are from the chrome reflections. But remember I have the wedge type LED so they aren't a bright white. I wish I had a plat to show you how bright they are. IMO looks better.

 

Try LEDTronics. These are much brighter.

I don't want them really bright. Just something to light it up so I don't get pulled over for not having my plate lit.

 

hey guys, i was just wondering how many people had experienced problems with the LEDs after replacing the 194/168 bulbs in the headlight housing? and what kind of problems you've experienced?

 

No problems here.

 

no problems here either

 

does anyone know the number for the headlight bulb for non HID head lights?

Do you still need the load resistor's if you only replace the front turn signal bulbs. I am going with the 06 tail's.

 

Most likely need a resistor. They be bright as hell when flashing. LOL

 

sorry noob question, but if you have the 06 tailights you don't need the parking light leds correct?

 

im talking bout the rear parking lights and tail/brake lights of course
