No. Those are 194 bulbs. You need 168 wedge bulbs. The cluster has the same bulbs as the parking and corner bumper lights. There are 5 total.

Yeah they are pretty much the same. The base of the bulb where it plugs in is exact. The 194 bulb is a little bigger. If you look at our license plate bulbs, those are 194's. The parking light and
corner bumper light bulbs are 168's, which are smaller. You can use either one but I would rather use 168's since they’re smaller and make less heat. You dont want the inside of your cluster to
melt. :flamer:

Well if you want superwhite get 168's. Thats what I have. I bought Polargs. I’m changing them with these 168 bulbs that have 7 LEDs per bulb! They cost $20 each though. I’ll have them by next week.
