I replaced mine with 168 wedge replaced with PIAA Xtreme White Plus (4300K) which look much whiter.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

12 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Everyone, has anyone replaced their standard front parking light bulb with an LED version? Thanks, Ralph

POST 2Original post

LED's cannot withstand the heat inside the front headlamp housings. I replaced mine with 168 wedge replaced with PIAA Xtreme White Plus (4300K) which look much whiter. Take a look at the photo below, which shows just the parking lamps on. The standard parking lamp looks quite yellow compared to the PIAA bulb.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

You're right they do look yellow. I did find these and actually ordered a pair for 13.50 shipped to at least see if they'll last longer and look as good as the 64132's that are standard (I guess). Thanks so much for the reply and illustrative pic!

POST 4Original post

I have orange leds installed. had them in for a couple years with no problem.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks C four S. My new bulbs have shipped. I'll take before and after pics. I opted for the "Cool White" look. I'll bet your orange LEDs look great...

POST 6Original post

I bought these yesterday: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161370097941 ***update the above will NOT fit in sockets. The little detents on these are spaced 180 degrees apart the factory ones are about 150 **** I now just bought the below they should have the right 150 degree base. See the illustration in the ebay listing. Now to wait a few more days. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Error-Free-W...602bb8&vxp=mtr

POST 7Original post

I used LEDs in that application for years with no issues.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I saw LEDS like that r6 and wondered what the light would look like with the leds on the side as well as pointing forward... Be sure to show us pics!

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What type of LEDs do you use Dennis?

POST 10Original post

Installed these today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Error-Free-W...602bb8&vxp=mtr No bulb out lights or anything silly. I am very happy with the results for $6.99 shipped (were on sale when I bought them). They are white but a little on the blue side of white. Pictures look representative of how they look to the eye. With PIAA yellow fogs:

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They look good r6. Frankly when I installed mine I was not happy with the single white dot because it didn't contrast well with my stock headlights. Took them right out. Yours appear to have a broader spectrum and look far better than mine did! R.

POST 12Original post

Took my parking lights out.....I think they look silly, not really sure why they're there? They make my HID's look yellowish so I took them out.
