The turns/parking lights are 5k, and still very white. They are also darn bright too. The backup light is putting out more light IMHO.
Before and after of both

They are pricey. Dunno if the backup light is worth the cost, but the turns are just cool in white when they arent blinking. Look like superwhite fogs.
Cionide turned me on to them.

Glad you're enjoying the dual front turn signal LED bulbs.
The LED bulb in the backup light looks very white & very bright when you look directly at it, but it puts out a lot less lumens of light so it doesn't throw out near as much visible light when backing up if your goal is to see what is behind you better when you're in the driver's seat. If you want to see better from the driver's seat when backing up, the 35watt halogen H8 mod is the way to go.

Gotcha. Might end up putting the other bulb back in. When I back out at night or dark mornings, I go like 1/2mph with the factory light because I cant see. I guess they never back up in japan.

Man they look real good during the day. I might be driving with parking lights on all the time
. Its funny at the red light, when one looks like a fog light and the other is blinking yellow.

I was excited when I saw this, but disappointed after I installed it. It disable flash when lock and unlock your car, and the main turned off was emergence light was disable when the car was off due to aftermaket relay.
