go0sebumpz · 05-10-2008, 06:36 PM

I have an 03 wrx where my side marker currently died out, anyone have any specific leds i should get to replace? I'd like white leds, but don't know what kind. I tried searching off superbrightleds but didn't know which to get. Any help? Thanks

WLED-x4
32º viewing angle - tight - projects the light mostly forward.

WLED-x5
220º viewing angle - wide - projects light out forward and to sides. If used in a 2006/2007 headlamp housing, it fills the housing, for example.

If fender side marker lamp is stock, then lense will diffuse light -- this would be a good choice. Can also use -x4 or -x6

If fender side marker lamp is clear (not diffused -- you can see bulb clearly), then use either WLED-x4 or -x6.

WLED-x6
35º viewing angle - tight - projects the light mostly forward, with some side projection. If used in a 2006/2007 headlamp housing, it will fill the housing, but less so, but light projected is brighter -- more LED's more light (more flags, more fun).

NOTE: the "x" as in "x5" for example, stands for the color you want.

So, if ordering an amber bulb, then you would purchase, for example, WLED-A5.

Look for superflux LEDs if you can find'em. They're much brighter.
