Were these Sylvania or ? My Advance store carries 3 (apparently) different Sylvania LED 194 bulbs, with prices ranging from $6 to $13 for each bulb.

Re: put some leds in for front parking lights
They must have been on sale because somebody made a mistake and spelled "bulbs" wrong on the package.

Re: put some leds in for front parking lights
Has anyone else encountered Alpena 194 bulbs at a source OTHER than Walmart?
I found a bunch of Alpena LED's at Autozone, but no 194's.

the hid is huge improvement but housings not as good as my friends hella e-code may return these for them. (twice as much $$)
I tried led in rear and seemed to only have a small bright center on red and brighter red center with brake on
returned them as the regular 1157 lights up all the entire red plastic area better.
cant remember brand of them so let us know if the ones you try are a improvement.
