Quality leds?? HELP
I have bought leds from superbrightleds.com for my parking lights and license plate lights. They burn out after about 3-4 months i have replaced them twice so far. Anyone know of some leds that will fit in the parking lights and license plate lights that will last a little longer. Im sick of replacing them..Thanks

the parking lights dont take well to led's. apparently the heat created by the headlight kills the led p[arking lights rather quickly (as you've seen). conventional bulbs would be best there. As for the liscense plate, i dont know why those are dying so quickly.
I got my led bulbs from garage1217, they've gone 2 months so far w/ zero problems.

superbrightleds has a warning not to use them as parking lights....
but i know varad carries 168/194 replacements that i haven't heard problems with.
garage1217 also has bulbs you can purchase as mentioned above.

Do they sell the bulbs that fit in the parking light/license plate lights on garage1217? If so will these last? One more question guys...since the parking light leds dont hold up well, does anyone know of a bulb that will fit there that is Hyper White. I am looking to complete the hyper white look. Thanks.

You can go to AutoZone and pick up some Blazer Xtreme bulbs for like $2.99. Those will fit in the Parking lights, Front Side Markers, and License Plate lights because they are all the same size. (194/168). The Blazers I've had in my tC for over a year with ZERO problems. I have green ones and they do not interfere with my SilverStars. Here's a pic...
No! I don't drive with just the Parking lights on! As for the License Plate lights, I purchased mine here...
Xenon White LED Bulbs
They look nice! Here's another pic but of the License Plate lights...
I also purchased these LEDs in Amber for my Front Side Markers. No problems with either. Some peeps have said my LEDs look Lexus-ish. Can't complain about that. Also, they're not expensive at all. I hope this helps!
