This is where you get all your bulb numbers - http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/A...placementGuide/ the led guys use the same reference numbers or have a cross.

I get all of me led's from these guys. http://www.v-leds.com Haven't had one fail yet and have had their white wide angle in the gauge cluster for two years.

Tag Light = 168

Backup = 1156

Candiiman,

Both of the lamps your looking at will fit, but when your replacing lamps that use reflectors you get better results with leds that fire in all directions. These are what I use for the gauge cluster for that reason: http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/fp/SFV/32481

The ones you've selected all fire only forward so they won't be as bright as the stock lamps because no light bounces off the reflector. When I first put in leds I got single led wide angle lamps and they were too dim, so I called V-leds and they put me on the right selection. They have a great customer service department that really know what works! Give them a call!

make sure the diameter of the led bulb is the same as the filament bulb or atleast the socket size. spent $60 on led reverse bulbs and the diameter was a too big so i just re-sold them kindasad.gif

I tired a few for the rear plate and they were all not really bright enough. I finally went with some 12led 194 bulbs that seem to work well.
