[VOTE] LED sidemarkers c63

I have stopped providing Eyelid + License plate LEDs, that was yesterday. Today im just checking to see if any of you are interested in a pair or LEDs for your side markers, 5000-6000k output.

Price will be determined, i will try to get a group buy going to get the best deal. Put in a vote + a comment to share your thoughts.

Sounds like a good idea...but would wonder how it would look with the painted reflectors?

not to sound like a jerk but it would look stupid - this would only look right on smoked or clear reflectors

Got tired of blowing expensive LED. Finally went with PIAA:

Side marker and eyelids for a year now with no issues

Will those throw an error code? Do you need a resistor for those? And do they stay white after getting hot because some of the other ones turn blueish.

North44: do you care to expand on how difficult it is to switch the eyelid lights with the bulbs you mention. Do you have any pics or DYI directions? Thanks in advance.

I should have tried the search. Thanks for your help, North.
What about the fogs, what do you recommend in there so that everything matches the OEM HID?

Fogs are H7's so a good bulb in the 6000k to 6600k will work. Higher temps with these bulbs so lense cracking is a possibility.

Going to a brighter bulb turns them into driving lights vs fog lights. Depends on what you want I guess.

I left mine stock. I live on an escarpment so we get our share of thick fog

Wouldn't you get an error from taking out the side markers?
