My Bulb Project

Installed my clearcorners that I got from Canzoomer they came with clear bulbs with a yellow hue Picture:



I went to www.superlumination.com and purchased bulb code #194 Hyper White Oval Wide Angle Lenses for the sidemarkers $2.49 each the result was



Then I saw that my stock position/parking lights could use a different color.



So I purchased bulb code #194 Hyper White Clear Focused Lenses (im thinking Oval Wide Angle may have worked better but o well) $2.49 each.
Bitch to install you need tiny hands.



Going to do the fogs next which are H11's.

FYI the blue bulbs are to blue they don't look right but thats MHO.

Whatca think?

Dont forget to take out the metal reflectors inside the clears if they are still in there for a better look. Inverted bulbs may work better than focused.

I see Mr Lime is still using my doctored avator. Such shame!

I got the 194 Opaque Focused Lenses LEDs for my 194 interior. They are way too dim.

It appears they have a new 194 "5LED Matrix Bulb" that are a ton brighter. I might grab a few of those for gets and shiggles... unless someone else wants to try it first.

wouldnt the inverted bulb be better for the sidemarkers because the light is only being seen from the side of the bulb?

Just ordered some chrome turn indicator bulbs for the front / rear indicators to get rid of the orange glow in the lights.

Changed all the interior bulbs for 4 cluster (2 blue 2 red) leds, nice purple glow in the car, changed the puddle lights too. Problem is that my camera doesn't have an exposure setiting on it so it doesn't show up well, here's the best I've managed. Need to get my m8 with an expensive digital camera to try for me!

I just ordered the puddle lights and would like to do purple lights as well.
Can you tell me where you got your bulbs? Thanks!
