OMG LED's are great!
OMG LED's are great!
I ordered amber and red LED's from www.superbrightleds.com and man do they really make a difference. No more pink and light oragne clears at night. If you spend the 60 bucks on clears(or hoowever much you soend) invest in colored or white LED's. They really make a difference.
I got all 4 shipped for 16 bucks.

Yeah led's really make the appearance of your car a little better, my friend has a 98 maxima with blue led's and red led's in his tailights and brake lights, you should see when he presses the brake on the sucker, beautiful.
yeah i have some 9-LED 921 bulbs for my clear corners and not only are they really bright, but they produce a true red and orange color that looks great during both night and day....i would shy away from 'white' LEDs though because it seems that in all these wedge type bulbs, the 'white' LEDs turn out looking more of a purple color...i've tried two brands of white wedge type LEDs and they both turned out this way...

How do I find out the size for certain bulbs? I wanted some for the side markers (both front n rear), the side corner lights on the 2k2 headlights, rear tails, and blinkers for both rear and also for the front 2k2 headlights.. =0

all you'll ever need right there...if i were you, however, instead of using 194's for the sidemarkers, i would get some 9-LED 921's off of ebay..they're a lot brighter and are plug and play...i don't think they would fit in any of the other 194 locations though, becuase the diameter is quite a bit larger and it just happens to fit into the sidemarkers...

Don't foget that if you guys are adding LEDs to any of the blinker lights that you will need to install a resistor on the circut in order to prevent the LED bulb from blinking too fast and burning out. I have LED lights in ALL of my lights right now, and after several of them burned out, I am GLADLY going back to filament style bulbs.

i used to have some 4led sidemarkers, but the law enforcement where i live has gotten worse adn i recieved a $75 ticket for them. since then i have unpluged my sidemarker bulbs and just run without them. all that money on bulbs and i cant even use them.
i have a set of the scatter leds, 1bulb facing forward and 4 pointiong in different directions, those are super bright and would fill the sidmarker all the way, not just a dot, but then again that would prob attract more attention.
oh yeah all the sidemarker bulbs are size 194, 168s will fit too but 194s are better. 921s are too deep and i beleive arent set to the same power rating.

you're correct about the door lights...sorry i misinterpreted you...you have to realize, however, that in the door lights, the bulb comes a lot closer to the very tip of the housing, which causes the LED to have a beam rather than spreading...another reason it does this in the door light is because it doesn't have reflectors like the side markers do...i also had LED lights in my doors at one point and i took them out immediately...they didn't provide near enough light and like you said, they looked like a beam....
I am at the site super bright leds but I do not see the bulb size in the buy now section, are all of these leds needed hardwire instead of plug in? meaning they are all the same size just needs to be hardwired to power up? also where can I find leds small enough to fit in the in cabin window module, I've seen a couple members had it in but where can I find these leds....thanks for ur response...

LEDs are plug and play, a direct replacement for your stock bulbs. Only difference is they last longer, shine faster, emits no heat, and draws less power. To see what bulbs are used in your car go to
www.sylvania.com then automotive then bulb replacement guide.

Alright, very good.
BUT!
What part number do I need for the SuperBright LED page. Its a 7440 or 7443 on the sylvania page, but what part number does that translate into on the Superbright page. I know they are either 1156 or 1157's.
Which ones eh?
