FS: Luxeon K2-based 194 bulbs $40/pair
 
$40/pair NEW shipped in the US (2 pairs available)

Type: 194
Color: Cool White

Color and light output are amazing compared to cheapie LED bulbs out there. There's no spotlight, and it spreads inside the light housing as well as light up what's in front. Heat should not be a concern. I made these bulbs for my 350Z, and I've had them for over 4 years without any issues. I made a set while waiting for the 370Z and would like to sell the extras.

Use these bulbs for your license plate and parking lights, but they're overkill for license plate lighting :icon17:

Notes: The LED dome is soft silicone, so please be gentle. Also, make sure the contacts are clean and tight.

Please PM me. Payments = Paypal. Thanks!

Finally got my car today, and the first thing I did was swap out the license plate lights:

i saw your video at : YouTube - CINCity Designs 370Z Headlights

can i ask you if your parking lights are white, whitish-blue, or blue

i'm running 10,000k HID bulbs and wanted your opinion if i should have my parking lights blue or white. i think if i get a blue LED thats darker then the headlights, it'll come out weird.
do u think i should change out the signal lights to a diff. color, if so wat color ? thank you

Wow you really dug up my thread! Hahah... man after my accident this morning that very bulb popped out of its socket!

The Luxeon K2 is very neutral white. It feels like 5500-5700K. The side marker LEDs are regular 5mm, so they're much more blue and leans towards 6500K+. My HID bulbs are Ultinon 6500K.

The picture below is not completely accurate. The parking light bulb is much more white and neutral looking:

If you want to make your own parking light bulbs, I would suggest these:
Cool White Luxeon Rebel 10mm Square LEDs

With stock headlights the amber light in the corner next to the 194 parking light are 2 amber LEDs. You would have to disassemble the entire headlight to change it out. In the picture above, it shows up slightly bluer because the LEDs come from a different company. Compared to my parking light bulb.

aren't all the bulbs accessible by peeling back the wheel well

I only have one bulb for the parking lights. How do you turn on the second one?

Yup, there are a couple of DIY threads about replacing the parking light bulbs. It's not that bad. just make sure the bulbs don't pop out of the socket.

There is no need to "turn on" the 2nd one. Your stock parking lights are the 194 bulbs. To the very corner are a couple of amber LEDs facing away from the car. I had mine changed out, so the picture of the slightly bluer lights is where the amber LEDs are located. I guess you can call them side markers. [shrugs]
