can these be used in clear corners?? the one with the white base doesnt look blue like all these other bulbs and i hate seeing the housing of the headlight all blue from the bulb and i hate the yellow effect of the stock bubls.. is there a way to have a white light that matches the headlight color?

Theres nothing ricey about LED bulbs.. heck, most of your 3rd brake lights integrated into your spoilers uses LED's. They illuminate faster, last longer, and use significantly less power.. The fact that they come in different colors is also no different from regular bulbs.
(this is not a rice debate, which instead would argue about what colors are being used where)

Also, afaik, when comparing bulbs (e.g. LED vs a regular bulb), I believe regular ones are actually brighter than typical LEDs (dont let those images fool you).

Personally, the only reason I would consider them for my clear corners is to replace my amber bulbs which tend to fade quickly (w/ amber LED's obviously).

yeah.. LED's are dope... next time you're behind a new mercedes S class, look at his tail lights when he hits the brakes.. and also, the new Catera's have HID headlights, AND LED rear blinkers.. looks dope..

i hate when a simple question turns into a rice debate it's like some people don't have any useful knowledge they just respond "that's rice", or "least it isn't rice", or "show a pic cause some one like me might think your talkin' about rice"

can we just get the F*** over it...
