my new parking lights :)

I just got these from the assembly line and man they look so nice. Pure white LED bulbs to replace the dim stocks. Brighter than anything available. I'm very happy with em and plan to get some for the dome lights and door markers as well. If anyone wants a pair, I can get it for $20 shipped.



And look how they compare to my already upgraded 2x raybrig bulb on the right. much brighter and whiter.

they fit the stock headlight parking light too! lemme try to get a pic by connecting to my 9v battery also keep in mind they will be even brighter when the alt is pushing 14v instead of 9 or 12.

okay everyone, these are made by my company. i guarantee you will not find a brighter LED anywhere! These were imported from overseas and are 125,000 mcd compared to the measly 8,000-10,000 mcd of the leds being sold now. they are nothing compared to these

i am sure it is with the luxeon 1 watt leds, but the problem with those is heat dissipation. you almost need a fan or something.

i can also make these diffused lens to light up all around the led instead of straight ahead.

the reverse lights are tricky. i have 35% tint and 2x brighter reverse light bulbs (clear) and still can't see. its because they are not angled downward. if you put halogens in there it still wont light up the ground much.

i have both diffused lens and regular clear depending if you want more side light.

they will only work for 194/168 small bulb. I am trying to think of a way to make a bright turn signal...
