Anyone have a good picture of the wide 5 vs the regular 6? The only wide angle pic in this thread doesn't show much.

Well I installed the 6 LED lights today...had to use a wrench to get the damn things out and in, but otherwise it went ok. I'm waiting for night to see what it looks like

That looks good but I don't know why you would want to light up your license plate area?

Figured I'd chime in and show my 5 minute handy work:

I swapped the Dome lights in the front and back: (excuse the blur, getting used to this new camera):

IS350 Taillight Swap (cough cough LEDs): (excuse the dirt, getting used to having to wash a new car lol)

This is one of the more rewarding mods. Took 5 minutes for each portion and looks really classy, used the white LEDs from SBLEDs they have a hue of blue to them like a 6000k HID which is cool because that's what I run...

Anyways hope everyone else is having good success with this clean mod..

well i dont know what LED's yall were using to compare to the Lexus license plate? I HAD the 6LED in there and those were supposed to be white but looked more blue to me so i put them in my dome lights! I got these and they work pretty kool!!!

$4.95 each "WLED-WHP Pure White High Power Polarized"

1LED bulb vs Stocker

1LED vs 6LED (more bluer in person)

Both in!!!

these are pretty bright! I havent compared to the Lexus lights cause i dont know anyone with the new Lexus. im pretty happy with them. Let me know what you think. i got them here...

The size for the reverse lights is 921. They're more for looks since they don't give off enough usable light. Your other option is to do what Feint Lighting did. Check their forum for more info.

I had the 6LED wedge bulb, but like Yanki01, It gave off more of a blue color, so I decided to purchase the ones he used and now looks way better. The 6LED kept flickering and I had to replace them often. Thanks Yanki01.
