I think the size is 168.

I have xenon white LED license plate lights, but be careful with blue, because that's illegal

blue license plate lights are illegal.

google "osram sylvania" and use that to look up all your bulb types for the car

194/168 wedge type bulb. blue is illegal and makes the car look cheap IMO, go with pure white looks clean

i have led license plate lights too, idk about kids, but mine dont hit the ground. They are nice and white, but not all powerful. If you are going for the ultra white lexus look you should consider a cathode tube mod

if there is a plug and play bulb better than the leds im currently using that gives great output though i am all ears
