Default v-leds parking lights *pics*

I hated to way the stock incandescent parking bulbs looked so i thought i
swap em out with some white leds. I have to say, installation was such a pain for just some parking bulbs...prob b/c i didn't remove my front wheels.
It looks much crisper, brighter during the night, almost reminiscent of the Audi leds. Light dissipation is actually pretty good, if not better, than the incandescent due to its configuration. I can take some night shots if anyones interested. Anyways, here are the pics and specs:

Part #: 194_13_SMT_W
Emitting Color: White
Forward Voltage (DC): 11.5-14.5V
Color Temperature: 6000K

alright, sorry but this is the best i could do as i do not have a fancy camera nor a tripod:





all the photos are really underexposed and exaggerates the light output.
They are bright but it looks much whiter and cleaner in person

a little too bright looks like you got your headlights on

if they had them in a more dim version i think they would look pretty nice..

did you just take out the stock ones and put these on? nothing else? I heard for led bulbs like these, you have to configure it. Or maybe you only need to configure it when you use led bulbs for turn signals. I heard they will blink like crazy if you don't. So prob not for parking lights, nvm.

It's really not that bright. Like I said, the pics over exaggerates it a lot. The lumen output on these are just a bit more than your conventional incandescent bulbs. Just imagine the stock bulbs except in crisp white and a bit brighter.

They also should have them in amber.

Yeh just plug and play. You will need to give the wires some slack though since there a bit longer than stock bulbs.

I've bought many V-Leds led lights, they are top-notch in quality. I got 5-led white bulbs as well. Looks awesome.
