I'd get LED.

Anyone know what LED bulb #'s are for the: Upper clearcorner, turnsignal / lower sidemarker???

Which led bulbs would you need for those 3 different bulbs?

(while im asking...what about the bulbs in the taillight? (basically all exterior bulbs besides headlights.....if I were to swap all exterior bulbs to LED, which LED bulbs/#'s would i need?


Found this:

Front Corners (Upper and lower): 4x 194/168 (5-led refractor type recommended)

Rear Corners 2x 194/168 (5-led refractor type recommended)


(are the front corners both the clearcorner and lower sidemarker? What about the rear corners? u talking about in the taillights?)

I got clear corners for my 2.2 and loved them with amber bulbs. I did not get LED because they flash faster with out a resistor and are very directional. LEDs look great, but you have to get one that points in many different directions. Right now I have yellow incandescent bukbs in my TL with crome coating. Love the look
