I'm going to get some tomorrow. I'm told any auto parts store can look them up and they're standardized. I'm taking a blown one with me to verify. You have to remove the bumper to change them you know?

168/194
you dont have to remove the bumper
theres a single dowell-screw at the top, just undo that and tug the light, itll come out, its a major ***** to get out, i busted the **** out of mine the first time doing it

Be careful. Mine was hard as hell to get out, and when I finally got it, the knobbys broke, and scratched my fender

try to tug from the side away from the headlight , i just changed mine to led bulbs and it came out easy, prolly cuz i've already done them.. but it was still easy

I had my headlight assemblies off of the car and it was a pain getting the corner lights off the main assembly...

They're yellowish like the headlights, aren't the stock ones like that?

you mean halogen?

Ya, the little 5W halogen corner lights are supposed to be amber in color like the stock headlights.

influx, how did you wire up the LED's? Do they fit the stock connector? I realized the yellow corner lights look stupid in contrast with my HID's.

i found mine from another person on ebay, dont know if he still sells em, they were the inverted plastic ones, not the 4head ones, but i have the 4head red leds on my rear corners
the ones i bought have a blue-ish tint, im gonna buy some pure whites and put the blue-ish tint ones on the license plate bulbs..

Thanks, I searched here and found some at autodynamics.com, ordered three pair. Damn these HID nazi lights, one more week til I can finish the install.

PepBoys sells LED 194/168's for like $7 a pair. They look good too, made by APC I think. My friend has some amber ones in his side markers in his fenders.
