Also as I mentioned before they are not that much of a blue in reality. Much more witeish. And cuz my side markers are black/tinted it looks even more white. There are more blue tone in the clearance strip.


Thanks JOKER for the updated pics. I think I will be returning my lights to V-LEDs and go back to the traditional filament bulbs. They seem to "fill" the casing better and even though they are more yellowish, they match the colors of my headlights/fogs a bit better than the so called blueish LEDs.

Just an FYI, I finally received my bulbs from vleds (which took forever btw). I ordered the High-powered white bulbs for the license plate, which look awesome. I just purchased some JDM clear sidemarkers, and I ordered the amber SMT 5 leds for them, and they light up the ENTIRE sidemarker. I actually wanted some that looked a bit more yellow than amber to match my fogs, and these fit the bill. I'll take some pics on my cell really quick to show you, but obviously they'll be ****ty pictures, sorry.
