as i'm sure many have noticed, the license plate light bulbs on the new lexus are really nice; i'm not sure if they're leds (probably) or just really bright, hyperwhite-like bulbs. does anyone know what bulbs would be able to be used for our cars to make that hyperwhite/hid-led look for those bulbs? jsmithsole, probably?

 

jsmithsole, yeah he has all the good looking led, switchbacks. I put in some that have a blueish tint to them. Look decent compared to the yellowish that was in there.

 

auto illumination or something like that has some LEDs that are good for licesne plate lights, they are a wide angle LED.

 

I was tired of trying to fix my rusted lights. So I bought a $2.00 plastic plate frame with a 1/2" lip. Bought a white, flexible, 8 LED strip. Dremeled the frame, then siliconed the strip in the frame. (also going over the strip inlet and wires just to be safe.) Used stainless bolts to secure..and there it is. I don't know if that is what you are looking to do, but I love how it looks, esp in person. The pix do not really do it justice, its much whiter in person, and shows the plate better. To top it off, I have 4600k HID's, and they match perfectly. It was a nice, unplanned bonus.

 

hey guys,
whats the bulb no for the license plate?
I have an '02.

thanks

 

I believe it should be 194.

I bought some of the LEDs off of eBay and it looked similar to the ones on the Lexus'.

I wish I can put it to my Max too...

 

We guarantee our brightness will be uniform and will not throw any codes:

The LED's you find on ebay blow out too quick. For the 2GS, we use Polarg M4's (#194).

I don't understand why it says banned under my name?

 

the super white autolumination LEDs look really good in there

 

Alot of clublexus members buy from this site. Good quality LED's for cheap. Just make sure its your correct bulb size:

maybe because this topic has been talked about before and you didn't bother searching so the admins changed your status?

 

for the 5th generation maxima..do we need the wide angle or regular..im askin cuz ours requires two bulbs..idk how it would look with two wide angle bubls.


thanks.

 

There CCFL lights on the lexus.

 

i was all over this like 1 yr ago... i went thru like 100 leds.. and I FINALLY found the PERFECT match.. here they are...

for some reason, i don't see the "white".. but email them.. I have these in white.. maybe they are discontinued ??

anyway, i will try and post pics of how they look tomorrow. they are GREAT!

 

Just looking at that ugly light we have in the back today too. I have a 5.5 gen. Autolumination is where I purchased my other LED's and they've worked fine. The light number I need is 2 of the (194)? I'm not sure if I need wide or regular?

Thanks guys cant wait to see the pics ikalinin

 

I was recommended this site:

or maybe these?

I"m not sure which would fit your car. I bet youd have to snip some wires and "custom install" either of those.

 

ok, so here are the pics guys... these are awesome lights.. sorry the car was filthy.

 

looks clean nice job, what did you go with?

 

see post #17, above.

 

Looks nice.

 

whoa i gotta get those, mine cause my ecu to go crazy

 

those are sweet lights......does anyone know if they rattle or how do they stay put inside the housing?

 

when you install them, you connect the wire harness into the nissan housing, then you make a loop w/ the wire... that look pushes up against the housing the the led against the lens.. so the fit is snug. it doesn't rattle or move around... its been in my car for the past 8-10 months.. no water, or problems. thats why i'm recommending this great LED.

 

Thanks....I was wondering because i have a system and i had to dynamat my tag, rear deck, etc......didn't know if these would get damaged rattling around in there or not.

 

REPLACED THE STOCK 194S WITH LED 194S, VERY DIFFERENT LOOK, BUT THE WHITE IS NOWHERE NEAR THE LEXUS LOOK.

 

I can honestly say that i like that and i ended up making my first internet purchase 2 mins after haha. Looks good bud!
