Another LED swap post

I ordered them from www.superbrightleds.com , the ones for the front have 5 LEDS and are "cool white". I havent gotten the shipment yet that has bulbs for my interior and license plate as well. I think they were only $3-$4 each, so its probably not worth returning them, I'll just find another place to put em.
Unfortunately i dont have foglights, i guess the STR's 2005 up dont have them because that is were the intake for the supercharger is or some sh*t. Your lighting set up must look SWEET.
Basically I am just looking for something to match the HID's, and from what I am reading color in the 4000-4500K is where I want to be.

Got the bulbs today, installed them, look AWESOME. Highly recommended. Will try to take pics in low light.
Of course there was a small snag. After taking the left license plate bulb out, and replacing it with the new LED i noticed it didnt work. The right one did, left one did not. It was working before i took out the original so i dont know what the heck happened. I tried to put original back in just to see if it worked but to no avail. Any ideas?

Ya unfortunately I did try and flop the bulbs around but still nothing. I am thinking I might have done something to the wires/connection, those suckers are tough to pull out! Its not like I was tugging on the whole unit, just the bulb. I dont have a tester, maybe should see if one of my buddies has one, I know a couple electricians.
Josworth, did you ever take a look at the site and/or get anything? Personally I think the front side bulbs look the best, perfect color.

Ha, good work noticing that...Well I didnt have time to look into it yesterday, and it magically came on when I put my headlights on today. The Jaguar gods were nice to me today.
Just an FYI for anyone that is thinking of switching out their parking lamps. I have read on some posts to just pull them out, and they will come out if you pull hard enough. Not sure that is the case, at least on mine it wasn't. Thank god I read the manual because you actually have to turn the white, plastic clip casing counter clockwise then pull them out. On mine they were NOT just stuck in there, they were locked in with this plastic "casing" thing, if you will.

Very nice LEDs. Now you just need to get a set of the chrome turn signal bulbs for the front. They look clear when off, but flash amber when you use the turn signals. I did the same for my rear turn signals. No more amber glow either front or rear.
Here is a site where I purchased mine........
