License Plate LEDs
Hello everyone, I'm about to purchase a few LED bulbs from SuperBrightLEDs.com but notice that there are two different options for the License Plate LEDs. One is the Recommended Replacement while the other is Recommended CAN Bus Replacement.

Which one should I purchase? I want the Natural LED color. This is for a 2013 Lexus CT 200H. Thank you!

It is not a canbus type. Just buy the recommended bulb however it would probably be cheaper at amazon.

Don't buy anything from superbrightleds, they only sell overpriced non-tested garbage. I never got a refund from them for some DOA crap I ordered for my brother's Miata 
As far as getting the same thing on Amazon, you can... but I wouldn't recommend it.
As much as I love LEDs and wish every lightbulb in the world was powered by LED, I'd rather get OEM. The LEDs used in these automotive plug-and-play solutions are low binned, so specs like color temperature and CRI is very low and random, and the quality of construction and QC is little to none. In plain English what this means is that the quality of the light is very low, and often times they will fail after a couple months from a bad solder joint or some other manufacturing defect.
