City Lights

What type of bulbs are these? Im looking to put either Ultra Whites or red bulbs instead of the dim stock ones but I cant seem to find what the specs are for them. Thanks.

They are the same as the ones in your side markers...Take one of those out, and you're see what they look like...I don't know what the bulb number is

I have a question on city lights...if you put em in your headlight housing..say the blue ones, how do they look?? Do they light up the whole thing?? Can you notice em when the headlights are on too?? Any pics would be appreciated....I was thinking about getting the blue ones to match my blue fog/driving lights.....

It doesnt light up the whole housing but most of the bottom at an angle so it looks pissed off...I drove behind my friend with them on when it was pitch dark he said it looked pretty bad a$$.
The headlights drowned out the city light, but you can tell they are there...

www.autodynamic.com

check it out there, they have LED bulbs that will fit in there, the 168/194 bulbs, and the colors will never fade. I put some of those blue ones in my dome light, wow.... they are bright and they look really good. I also have the white ones in my sidemarkers.

the blue bulb city lights look great if you're into rice

I on the other hand stuck some superwhites in there (well "whitecar" bought them and put um in both cars). When you look at them, they defnitely look nice. Not a hint of yellow, or that dim look. But it doens't look like a significant change either. Until you leave your stock bulb on one side that is. Huge difference

Ok, hypothetically....couldnt you just get those blue led 194 bulbs from autodynamic (or any color therefore), stick em in your headlight parking light bulbs...and have the same thing as city lights minus the $$$, the drilling, and the wiring????

i bought a pair of hella expensive aftermarket bulbs (artic purple) and some hyperwhite wedge bulbs. when the aftermarket bulbs burnt out after only a week i never took out the wedge bulbs. it does look nice when you have the city lights on but when you have the oem halogen bulbs and the hyperwhite wedge bulbs both on... it doesn't look that good. i did get a lot of compliments on how the city lights looked at night tho. btw, a couple of dudes thought my wedge bulbs were HIDs. haha
