So many different bulb types! Help!
Ok, I'm looking to replace my parking lights (tubes closest to Mazda symbol), Front/Rear turn signals, and maplights with LEDs. Off of www.autolumination.com, here's what I've selected:
4-LED 194 for parking lights (tubes). Will they fit in there? 1-LED 194 is my back up.
1-LED Inverted beam Amber for Turn Signals. Will these be bright enough?
1-LED Opaque Red for Passenger Map Light for SCCA Winter Rallys. My navigator normally uses a red flashlight to see the directions, since the red doesn't bother my eyes. I thought I'd try this out.
I want to check with the experts (you guys!) before I put in my order. I'm looking for your experiences to tell me what to do here. Suggestions are welcome! Thanks!

The 5-LED 194's will fit the parking lights and they're a good color match for the Xenon headlights. One LED points forward, the other four point to the four compass directions, so excellent and even illumination.
Be VERY careful when you pull the socket in and out of the tube. I had a bulb drop out when I was reinserting the socket. It's a real pain to get it out of there.
No experience with the others, sorry.

Thanks! At least I finally got a response!
What are people running for the H11 foglight bulbs? I found these Nokya bulbs that I might get, but they're heavily (IMO) tinted blue. $30 for the set including shipping.
