laythor thanks for the opinion. i will be putting hyper white leds in the parking lights once they arrive

laythor

You'll love the look of hyperwhite.. they take out the yellowish tint of the stock bulbs

the blue leds i ordered were 12 led bulbs and the base was wider so they didnt fit snug in the socket so i will have to go with less led bulbs.

cant wait to install these on my car, i had stealth bulbs in my side markers and got pulled over the night i installed them, illinois cops hate customized cars where im from they will pull you over for just about anything

(can't seem to find the 18's that matched my Brake lights anymore, but the link is to some with 27 LED's).

Fog lights...........Hoen H11's. This isn't where I bought them, but see............ http://www.hoen-usa.com/fog.htm

Puddle lights courtesy of Shazbot. https://www.rx8club.com/group-buy-center-85/custom-led-puddle-lights-118822/ BUT.....I did change out the LEDs to match those in the door courtesy light position.....see above.

RX8Strakes Stealth brake light, but I believe they stopped making the one I have(which is the good one), but here's their most recent one. http://www.rx8strakes.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=348

thanks for the links looks like im going to be ordering some today

lopezian2004

you have parking lights but not the headlights? does that look a little funky or did you just forget to include it in the list?

my total for 2 parking leds< 2 side marker leds, 2 reverse leds, and 2 brake light leds comes to $55 shipped

Mazurfer

Only take the links for what they are worth. I started changing everything about two years ago, so there are probably better options now................but I don't think you can go wrong if you stay with Vled's.

hey aipex... i got these super white leds from rx8 strakes.. here's the thread https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-exterior-appearance-body-kits-27/rx8strakes-led-sidemarker-bulbs-installed-149383/

would you say that the LEDs that you have in the link would match the LED side markers that i have? (not the stealth clear bulbs as i have pictures of both)


i'm also looking to get the 8000k headlights. There's a link in this thread too.. anybody have any experience with them? https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-do-yourself-forum-73/diy-bluer-low-beam-hid-bulbs-107608/

I would say no, the actual color of white LEDs vary widely depending on who you purchase them from. All of the V-LED bulbs match nicely and they are also closer to actual white with less of a blue tint. Your corner bulbs look to have much more of a blue tint to them. Of course it's hard to tell for sure from pics from different cameras, lighting, etc.

The V-LED bulbs are also a very close match for 6000K HID bulbs (I have the Philips Ultinons). I don't have any experience with 8000K bulbs, but from pics I've seen, it looks like your corners are closer to 8000K.
