Default 194 LED 360-Degree Parking Lights $4 on Amazon

I was just browsing for LED parking lights for my GS350 and I ran into this
http://www.amazon.com/Putco-230194W-360-360-Degree-Premium-Replacement/dp/B001FCRXE8 http://www.amazon.com/Putco-230194W-360-360-Degree-Premium-Replacement/dp/B001FCRXE8

It says $30 but on other sellers under it, it shows $4 w/ free shipping.
Here is a screenshot


Just wanted to let you guys know.

Here is the thread on how to replace your parking lights.

It's a good deal if they are real putco bulbs, if they are chinese knockoffs - which is likely - beware. The last time I cheaped out and got a chinese bulb for my trunk I one day found it not working and when I went to remove it it burned my fingers it was blazing hot. Car fire hazard not worth saving a few bucks...

I bought a similar bulb on eBay. It worked and as far as I could see it didn't over heat. It could withstand the heat from the highbeam too. But after a few months some of the light stop lighting up.

Anyway, I go back to OEM halogen bulb. They are more reliable.
