Are these bulbs interchangable most that I am finding are listed together as the same type does that meen i can use either? I am trying to replace my parking lights with leds but not sure if they will work. I bought the piaa super plasma 168 bulbs but they aren't the right color. Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks

168 194 are for the most part interchangeable. You can use the 194 LEDs if it calls for a 168. If you use a 194 (standard) where it calls for a 168 it might be a little dim, but not much. I would not recommend using a 168 where it calls for a 194. The bulb will burn out quicker.
