Started to see more of the hyper white leds on civics, so yeah.

I got 'light' amber. (as compared to medium and super)





This was before btw.



Maplights went from hyper white to led amber as too, It actually matches the cluster theme spot on and isn't blinding. Compare it to the theme of ambient lighting you see in late model bangle bmw models.

Looks nice!

I noticed some of the blueish ones on a Mustang last night... looked off somehow. I love the look of the LED ones on the Lex$*$, but a lot of the aftermarket retrofit ones seem too focused or blue or something...

Thanks

Yeah, after seeing a lot of them on other cars it made me want to just put the oem lights back on, which I did except just in led form. (a bit brighter, lasts longer)

I agree, they better on the lexus

Nice change. I agree that you do see a lot of rip off brands trying to be too blue, but I still love the look of the bright White (not blue-white). I have PIAA on mine and love them. The old saying stands true for everything, you get what you pay for.

Noice Noice!

Some company (I think ClearCorners, which means it's pricey) makes a dual function LED maplight that I thought was pretty slick.

You may want make some anonymous DMV check and make sure that the amber plate light are ok. Most places just have some "visible at night" stipulation, but you never know what interpretation of the law some places will try in order to fill the coffers.

What do they know though, they probably don't like the Tric Plate either.

I really, Really want the led amber sidemarker

Should be fine, we have drivers in SoFla that don't even have illuminating plate lights
