Has anyone used these wedge bulbs before?

I am looking for some pictures of the light output.

A nice guy from PriusChat.com bought a pair of these and made a video of the output.

Make sure you pick high quality.

I am still on the fence about the bulbs. I would love to use these for the license plate bulbs but I think the extra blue hue might get some unwanted attention from the CA LEO's.

If anyone decides to try these please post some pictures.

These tend to have a narrow beam pattern so use them in a good location where spread isn't that much of an issue.

The narrow beam should not be too much of an issue if there is a diffuser. The area that might post a problem is in the license plate lights (on the 2GS anyways).

Chrispy bought a pair and will post pics when they come in 2 weeks.

usually these bulbs have pretty good light dispersion angles. It's those old school 5mm LEDs that have narrow dispersion. I wouldn't expect a full 90 degree viewing angle though, but definitely better than 45 degrees.

Why not just buy from www.superbrightlightsled.com or www.autolumination.com?

superbrightled sucks. Their LED's burn out in a couple of months.

I had them, never burned out on me. Where did these LED's get placed?

My superbrightLEDs didn't burn out...the clear lense broke off :(

it doesn't matter though because their 'white' LEDs are not truely white anyways. I was disappointed when they gave off a hint of blue.

I'm going to be retrofitting an insanely bright bulb for the overhead lamp. i just hope the OEM difusser is good enough :D

The guy from the Prius forum posted another video.

I would rather have pictures though. The camera distorts the actual light color.

Sorry for the delay guys. I forgot about this thread.

This picture shows the real color.

This picture looks really blue but it shows the dispersion.

This is what I think it looks like in person.

I actually sell these 194 light bulbs a while back.
I am still using in on my license plate though.

I love how it looks.

Can you still get these bulbs for cheap Nigel?

Put very well.. I bought a set of these for my license plate (through V-led)... I dont like them :( they gave a narrow beam and would need another one between the 2 to light the whole plate. As you can see in Crispy's pictures, there is a void of black in between the lights output. As said above, if they are used for an area where spread isnt an issue.... good deal.
