Rear Clear corners or Go back to Red
I have no idea. I like the clear corner but I cannot keep up with the painting of the red bulbs. Should I go back to the red corner or should I do the LEDs.. which I have no idea on how to.

LED's in the corners look sick. i still cant believe how much more red they are than the incandescent red bulbs (looked pink).
clr corners all around or none at all imo.

White car...definitely stick with the clear. Like 2kprlmax suggested, just buy some pre-made red LED bulbs. They're $1 or $2 per bulb.

Ill have to agree with ya on that one. I put the clears on my car (bought both sets), but ended up putting the red ones back on cause it just made the car look "right". When you get to the cars rear end, nothing but red works. Course, red LED's are the best.

I've got red led's on my clear corners on my white car (and amber up front). Looks stock at night 'cause they light up the correct colors, and is all clear during the day. Definetly go w/the LED bulbs. The radial firing ones fill up the lenses pretty well, and they last alot longer than stock bulbs. And I got mine here (no affiliation, etc): LED's

That didn't stop me from buying their $46 SuperPlasmas for my fogs, because they do match the best. Of course, they will probably burn out in the upcoming months, and I'll probably go the HID fog route.

Ive used both the regular style and LED and the main advantage of the LED is consistent light output (color and intensity) as opposed to the painted bulbs that the coloring flakes off. Also, since they were going in a place I didnt want to have to mess with more than once, I used the LED's cause they last a hell of a lot longer.

Thanks guys, but I got them already and am very happy with them...BIG time upgrade over any regular red 194 bulb. If they start to fade I'll go with the LED/
good website...very affordable products and good customer service.
