Damn those are bright. Now all you need is some DDEs in them thangs. I might be looking for some 9 led bulbs for my rear side markers. The $3 bulbs from wal-mart aren't cutting it, but have done just as good as some of the $18 bulbs I've had back there.

921 9 LED bulbs will work if there's enough physical room in the opening to stick it in.

Btw. the same person who runs autolumination sells on Ebay..there, you can buy the bulbs $1-2 cheaper.

Just curious why would switching out the headlight markers with the 9 LED bulbs cause your blinker to blink fast??

Did you have to buy the LED Load Equalizer to make the LEDs work? If so, which load resistance did you buy - 6 or 3 ohm? Thanks in advance.

you only have to buy load equilizers if your putting leds in ur blinkers or brake lights

kloogy put them in his sidemarker light inside his headlights....they never blink they jsut stay on....so you dont need a load equilizer

I'm glad you like them Kloogy! I had no idea that they made 9 bulb LEDs that would fit the 194 socket. Here is the picture of my 6 bulb LEDs.

Like I said, order the 9 led 921 bulb. It matches perfectly with the 194 socket. I figured I'd give it a try, since Ive used 921 bulbs , before on 194 sockets. No I did not need a load equalizer.......

I have the 6 LED ones. Autolumination is a great company. I got a bad bulb and they replaced it for me immediately.
Oh and those 9 LED ones are crazy bright! Didn't know that would work in the 194 application.

He's selling the 6-LED for the sam eprice as the website, but the shipping is more. How is this cheaper?

They are the super white I got them too but mine don't match so I have to return them. I got one that looks blue/white and the other one is purple/white color. I told them that I wanted them to look purplish. And they are going to fix my missed matched lights. Execllent service.

Thats funny that you mention that. I had 4 - 9 led bulbs. 2 looked more blue that white , and the other too , looked more on the white side.....so I just matched up the ones that looked alike.

I ordered on the 27th and got them 4 days later on the 1st of May

Any one know what LED bulbs to get for map and dome lights ? ? ?

I was also thinking about getting the blue or Violet for my brake lights to get the blue red look like the old cars with the blue lens in them, just looks different.
What do you Guys/Girls think? ? ?
Would it work ? ? ?
