Parking Light Options

Post by drjeffreys » Mon Mar 26, 2007 9:53 pm

So i hate the stocker yellow parking lights, so like many others i went searching for an alternative.. picked up some arctic white LED bulbs from a local shop.. absolutely loved them... its been maybe 4 months now.. and one of them is starting to act up.. the leds all work but a couple of them flash crazily whenever my ebrake is down and lights ar on or car is running. i did some troubleshooting found out its obviously the bulb.. so im looking for some new bulbs.. i heard sylvania makes some but i do not want yellow.. anyone have any advice as to where i can get locally??

So you're looking to buy more LED replacements?

eBay has them real cheap because you eliminate the 'middle man' in most situations. Other than that... You're typical Rice Depot like AutoZone, Advance, or Pep Boys. (Sorry if I offended anyone here by that.) :lol:

you can go to superbrightleds.com

depending on the color of you car i would either tint them or get clears but either way go with amber lights.

You just have to stay away from the APC area. I don't even see how ricers think that stuff is cool.
