yeah i bought some 1157 led bulbs on ebay for my tail lights 1 burnt out in less than 2 weeks, 2 more about 3 months later, some things you shouldnt skimp on , i did the led's in my ae102 corolla nice bright gauges now
I'm still a bit confused on which version of 194's/ 74's you guys are talking about:
these?
or these?
or these?
or maybe these?
perhaps these?
or these?
or lastly(I HOPE)- these?
Please lemme know which ones you guys have used, and how to avoid hotspots/ coldspots.
Thanks much.

These..
they're the only ones that spread out the light instead of concentrating it...
I also have these in my side markers and corner lights, and they look great..!
as for 74's get the thinnest looking ones, as they require a TINY (and I mean tiny) bit of modification to the cluster hole to fit properly..

Got it. Thanks RazoE.
PS- If I want a white-white color, do I select natural white or cool white?
I'm not looking for a really blue-ish white.

omg to many choices it drives me nuts. They need to make less so its easier to make your mind up.

natural white is what you're looking for, cool white appears to be slightly bluish..
check out the gallery for my 89, and you can see the color in my corner lights..

I agree with using Superbrightleds.com over ebay man, The return policies are more strict, But you cannot get a better quality Bulb. My flashing Sidemarkers are bright as hell and it brings a great deal of safety with the mod I did.
So how do you put these in oncee he cluster is apart? Do they pop in or do you solder them on? I tink this is something I can I at home but I wana be sure before I screw things beyond the point of no return
Although I havent tried or looked into it they seem like they are made to plug into the factory bulb holder. Im guessing based off the fact they have resistors on them and the shape of the connection being similar to a buld type connection.

In my opinion: I have the wledx-5's they are pretty nice, I chose those is because they have L.ED.S all the way around the bulb, which I would think that more uniform lighting that the directionall ones. The H.p one's are pretty bright in my opinion. But they are not that much brighter. I'd buy a full set of each of the one's your interested in and compare your self. Or just get one h.p bulb, install it, and see it stands out from the rest of the bulbs. I would black out my windows so you can see the difference's better. That's what I did anyway.
Coldspot: I fixed my coldspot on the oil gauge by fitting in a 194 instead of the 74 bulb worked good.
