Best matching white parking lights (168 bulbs)

I am looking for the best white colored parking light bulbs. I believe they are 1681/92 bulbs. Some have posted the PIAA Extreme bulbs, they look a bit purple. Was looking for white to match the color bulbs. LED lights dont work w/o resistors so I dont want to deal with them. Thanks!

Razo Premium White Wedge bulbs are a good white. The Razo Premium Zero bulbs have a slight bluish tint to them. I've been using them for a long time now and still work great.

I'd say PIAA Tera, but they are pricey...

my set is 8000K to match the Lo-Beams

What kind of bulbs are you using? Even with as many tools around here in new Lexus'/Range Rovers that drive around with just those on and look like idiots (not to mention the fact that they do it at night too), that really does look pretty cool on our cars

It just the little bulb replacement colored blue at Advanced Auto stores for like $2....they have different colors but the blue matches best imo...glad you like them....


I will try to take a pic at night with the fogs on and off if I remember...

Oh wait, which headlight "housings" do you have? I've been searching around but i'm getting myself confused with all the options again... Clear non-Xenon housings?

Mine are the semi-ugly OEM fogged ones (with Xenons, but...), and I'm trying to find a reasonably cheap replacement that I can hopefully install myself and possibly customize the non-Xenon bulb slots.

They are clear Depo housings from Ebay and Carlab 8k HID kit....

Nice, that's the way I was thinking of going, considering the price of OEM... Pictures at night would *definitely* be appreciated, if the "ice storm" doesnt' hit you guys too bad tonight too

Has anyone used the Polarg white M-4 series bulbs?
I wonder if they have a white/blue or white/purple or white look?
