front led parking bulbs
 
I had some left over bulbs from my other car, so I decided to swap them in to replace the ugly yellow ones underneath the HID. What do you guys think?

$2 aftermarket bulbs, I would say they are about 6000K.

Looks good, cossie. I'll be doing the same if I can master the art of leaving the couch like a normal human being.

6700 k philips bulbs would match those leds ;)

You have to get to them through the wheel wells, correct? Reason I ask is that your hood is up. I've got the DRL LEDs, just haven't put them in yet.

Where are you guys getting your DRL LEDs?

yeah it's from the wheel well and I got to say the job is not fun. That's why I have only done one side

This is pretty much whats stopped me from changing my bulbs out. Care to post up a bulb number? Maybe I'll get to them this weekend.

Looks good, this is one of the first mods I did to my car. Install indeed is a bit of a PITA, but it looks a lot better...

Amazon.com: 10x 194 168 2825 5-SMD White High Power LED Car Lights Bulb: Automotive

I ended up using three of the bulbs for the interior too. I opted to not do the license plate light as I want that light to be darker instead of brighter.

4500K will get you the most lumens. Sure the blue at 6700K looks nice, but it is very illegal and I need as much lighting as possible since I drive in the dark a lot.

You can also turn the turn signal bulb into a parking light and a turn signal at the same time.:hello:
