2014 Taillight Blinker LED replacement

My 2014 TL has a rear tail light bulb out, I’d like to replace with amber or red LED bulbs. Can anyone share a link to bulbs you would recommend?

I've been using these for the past year (nov 2020):

Amazon Amazon

Very bright esp at nice. The first set I got died within a month and would start hyperblinking after 1 minute of use on both bulbs since new. The replacements from manufacturer have lasted easily 1 year with no issues.

Thank you, @csmeance I've ordered these from Amazon for my rear turn signals. Thank you.

Since we are discussing LED's, did you replace the license plate bulbs with LED and the front turn signal bulbs as well? Open to replacing them all at once if you have products to recommend!

I have all my lights LED for the last 4 years except the headlights of course and so far so good. I only had trouble with the high/low beams. My favorite is the switchbacks for turn signals and matching fog lights.

Here's the switchbacks and I have the same brand for fog lights. The switchbacks needs resistors though.

Amazon Amazon

They were a lot cheaper back when I got them.

If you're interested in switchbacks I'm sure you can find all sorts of similar options. Otherwise maybe go see if the brand cmeanse recommended have the other kinds you are looking for. Sticking to one brand will help ensure they match.

For the License plate I went with the Sylvania ZEVO bulbs and they have been great! I got them much cheaper from ebay vs amazon

@csmeance Just ordered the zevo’s. Now looking at front turn signals and new headlights.

For headlights I think I’m gonna order these Osrams:

OSRAM Xenarc Cool Blue Boost D2S Xenon Car Headlight Bulbs (Twin) 66240CBB-HCB
Amazon Amazon

For HID bulbs use theretrofitsource.com rather than amazon, tons of fake HID bulbs on the market.
