as many of you know it, 4th gen lights (stock) arent really that good..its yellowish and dim.

well i had a set of polarg hyper whites which made them white but i lost them. i did some reasearch and there is a bulb that can replace the standard 168/194 bulb.

its 2825. w5w. the differnce is that they are 2 times as bright, and they are european spec. i put them side by side and lighted them up and the 168 was amber, and the 2825's was white. it is really alot brighter and only for a dollar. haha its not hyperwhite but for those who dont want any aftermarket bulbs this is good for you.

im replacing my rear licence plate 168's tomrrow with these 2825's.

my corners are whiter and brighter now =)/.
