Parking/City Light?

Hello Guys:

I wanted to swap out the parking/city light bulbs to match up with the Xenon's and its turning out to be quite frustrating. About a month ago I purchased a set of leds that did the trick but then fried my wiring harness after 1 hour, I am not going there again and they are all cheap quality. So after fitting a new harness I came across the bulbs below but the bulb color is still yellow! Whats going on here, any recommendations please, thx!

the advertised bulbs are 3400ºK and will be noticeably warmer than your factory
HID of 4300º.

i've been using those for about 6 mos and they've functioned just fine (no
bulb malfunction alert). but they're cooler and in the blue tinged range and
make my 5000ºK bulb warmer, side-by-side even though they were suppose
to be 5000º LEDs

i picked up license plate bulbs from mike as well and they're super: bright, white, no errors
