You could contact "Auto Design" who sells the ones from JLC Lighting which are lights made from Japan.
I have them for my car.
Here are pics of them

They are bright (not super bright such that it looks like a projection beam, more like adequte room white light filling). Super bright ones you may want to stay away from since they will have a shorter life span.

After long searching for the perfect parking lights and puddles, I found these for the puddle lights and I love them a lot. They are a pure white, no blue at all and super bright. http://www.ebay.com/itm/180389094773...84.m1439.l2649
I can take a picture in the morning when I leave to school, it lights my garage floor like crazy.

For me, I go for quality bulbs than cheap, as mentioned, JLC's is made in Japan.
Here are the ones I used.

I get them from Auto Design, not from JLC directly, but use their site as reference to tell them what I want from JLC.

With Auto Design, they give discount to members of CL therefore it would be cheaper than getting it from JLC directly.
To get the bulbs from them, you send a PM to "Auto Design" and they will communicate with you. This is how I got mine.
I went the cheap eBay LED route too, sorry I'm no help with links, but they all burned out within a year. Just a heads up!
I recently switched to 5k (bright white) VLEDS, so I don't have a comparison on if these will burn out. Good luck, LEDS make a great subtle change
