Smile Parking lights

So I'm wanting to change my my parking lights to a white LED type-ish setup. I know what size bulb I need, but I don't know what is the best bulb to get for this and if I need an adapter to prevent throwing a code.

You'll need canbus LEDs otherwise you'll get error codes.

I recommend you get the Canbus Cob Led similar to the pic, no error message whatsoever. I'm using 4 for parking lights, 2 for footwell, and wont fit the license plate because it is long.

Almost every led will burn in light housing... Have tried twice with AZN optics (sorry!) and with others and all come to burn some time after..

Maybe last 1 month, six months, but will burn due to heat.

Someone has a good advice of canbus led for eyebrows?
