Default Got these new bulbs for wedge lights...should look awesome!

I got these off ebay, multi sided led lights for the wedge bulbs. im putting em up front for the ones that light up for the parking light in the main headlight area. I hope they clear and fit thru the housing? if not, i'll find ones similiar that do, or make em fit. I think it should light them up a lot better. anyone done this? I ordered the in the hyper white style....

"Impersonating an officer anyone" ??

Reason I say this...my friend has lights very very similar to those on his Protege...and he has been talked to by the authorities many of times...

...or maybe it's his police siren...

i only got the hyper white, not the blue or red. The hyperwhite will just function the same as the normal 194 wedges in the main headlights and when your parking lights are on, make like a tint of light in it. These bulbs I hope will make them really light up nicely!

Also arent LED lights not suppose to burn out for a LONG time? I hope they last if they do fit ok....

yea its not the blinker, cause for the blinkers it would not be worth using, since its got the orange reflector built in. It'd just light up brighter prob. I'm putting it in the bulb where the headlight has a kind of parking light. I'll get some pics once I get them in. Should look sweet.

cant really tell a difference with pics. just think, when your behind a 745Li or a Caddilac Deville, or any caddilac for that matter. those are LED lights, but the bulbs you wont really tell with a camera. i Put my xB next to another to compare the running lights in the rear, and you can tell who was running the LED's. My lights are a different shade of red compared to the regular bulbs. the regular bulbs is just a white light shown through a Red filter, as my LED lights are LED red light shown through a red filter, the best part of that is my taillights can be painted the same color as my car and still shine red.

whew hope thet wasnt confusing, because it was for me

yeah, when you brake with stock 7443 bulbs, the taillights look pink/purple.. replaced with LED's and you get a better DARKER red.

I have those same bulbs in my xB. You can also buy them here:
http://www.autolumination.com/
194 5 LED WEDGE MATRIX LED BULB also sen here:
http://autolumination.com/194.htm
Cept in my xB I have them in my side markers and in my license plate lights. I don't have a pic of the side markers but here's a pic of the license plate lights.

They're pretty bright! Brighter than I thought they would be. They really look great in the side markers as well.
