..... dont get 360. totally pointless.. this is what most of the people who baught liscense plate led's from superbrightleds.com

WLED-xHP High Power LED bulb
12 VDC Wedge Base bulb (194/168 type)
With 1 High Power LED

I actually just installed mine today. Why get 360 led when the liscense plate light will only show 180 degrees at the most.
the one your showing looks like it has no LED pointing DOWN which is what our liscense plate led will be facing. Not practical.

They make a huge white rectangle over your plate. That is going to piss off cops.

here a pic of mine

Mitchyy · 02-19-2009, 02:24 PM

not really. cops dont say anything about em. and if they do tell em its stock, just like they come on the lexus, MB, and Infiniti

emoav8r26 · 02-19-2009, 04:20 PM

the rule is that they have to be able to read the plate, thats all...bright just means they can read us from a mile away instead of right behind us.. at least thats in NY

wat wattage are you using?

trurice · 02-20-2009, 12:34 AM

MY LORD PEOPLE. The cop thing was a joke! If you look at the pics he blocked out his plate with a white box. It was a bit of forum humor.

I got my leds today.

9 LED festoon map lights = A+ very happy bright as stock and way better looking

4 LED festoon map lights = POOP

5 LED 194 bulbs for license plate = ehhhh not sure, but so far I dont think they are close to the brightness or look of the lexus license plate lights

emoav8r26 · 02-24-2009, 06:35 PM

just installed my WLED-WHP's, gonna have to wait to see how they look tonight

I've always used regular polarg bulbs for license plate and interior/map lights. The polargs seem brighter then pic above by 07mugen.
