Disappointed with V-Leds.com and superbrightleds - recommend some other good bulbs
Had the 194 High Power and SMT bulbs from v-leds.com and also the 9led from superbrightleds and both have failed in short time.
I still want the hyper white look on clear corners, trunk and license plate so what are the really good reliable brands for 194 bulbs?
Thanks,
Clint

those places use cheap quality LED's and they're worried about quantity, not quality. they may be much cheaper but reordering and paying additional shipping multiple times will almost equal higher quality bulbs. and you might save yourself the embarassment of having one of your clearance or license plate bulbs flickering for weeks and you not knowing it (like i did). stop supporting bad quality parts sites and help put those cheap bastards out of business. buy some PIAA LED bulbs. had mine for almost 2 years now in the license plate and no problems to date.

PIAA LED's for gauge backlighting

I've always used Piaa Extreme White bulbs in both the clear corners and the clearance strip on my G. The only problem I've found is in time, they start to loose the blue coating. I replaced my clearance bulbs after 2yrs, and the blue coating had almost completely flaked off.
I tried the super white bulbs as well, and IMO they look more pinkish to purple than white like the Extreme Whites....

- What bulbs are you using for the fogs?
- What bulbs are you using for the clear sidemarkers?
Thanks!
