armoredsaint Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) So I finally got around to installing my Yellow/Amber LED's last night for the turn signals and it's not as bright is the OEM incandescents, so I swapped it back out. Just an FYI. OEM Bulb Edited August 5, 2013 by armoredsaint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanotos Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Wow, really the stock bulb is brighter than the LED???Good thing you told us! I was about to buy a 5 LED bulb to replace mine.By the way, when you replace the bulbs, did you get an error message on your screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wab Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Do you think 28 SMD bulbs will fit in the hole and would they be bright enough? http://www.amazon.com/Cutequeen-Lights-Bulb-Yellow-28-SMD/dp/B00BFO13D8/ref=sr_1_2?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1375746751&sr=1-2&keywords=28-smd+Yellow+SUPER+BRIGHT+LED I can't measure the depth, the car is at the dealer. Thankswab Edited August 6, 2013 by wab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankswab i already had to somewhat force the 20 LED to fit, that looks even harder to get in there unless you know how to remove the mirror etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
