Default Place to buy LEDs/bulbs?

Hi,

I am planning to take my car into Exact this Friday for an HID kit install.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any good places to buy LED wedge bulbs/etc in the south bay/peninsula.

I want to get some super white LED's with refractor to replace my parking lights. (which I believe are type 168? which I think is the same as type 194 wedge?)

I would just order them but they probably would not get here before Friday.

Any ideas? I checked Fry's already and they didnt' have anything. Are there any good parts/lights/tuner type places between san jose and san mateo?

Thanks,
Mike

i guess for future reference, if you guys are willing to wait for the ship time from japan... i went with these, RC 83 for parkin lights, and RC364.for the sidemarkers. I'm curious about trying the R191,192, 197, or 198 set, different colors based on angle of viewing.

I actually like these better than the bellof 4led wide angles i use to have in there
