Default Pics: 6-LED (Xenon White) wedge bulb VS. Polarg M6 & M4

Like Brendan....I wanted to change my M6 to something that would match closer to the color temp of our 6000K HIDs. I found these 6-LEDs (Xenon white) bulbs. Fits easily into the wedge and side market housings.

The 6-LED bulb.

Polarg M6 in wedge, and M4 in side markers. Notice the M6/M4 (more wattage) are brighter than the LEDs, but they are more yellow in color too....yuck!!.

They look great. Where did you get them?

There is a guy on ebay who sells them for like 8.80 free shipping from Hong Kong I think. I ordered 2 pairs from him and it only took a week to come in. He also has blue ones. He is the only person ive seen with them. Im happy with them. Nice color IMO

Hi gang -

Yes...i got them on ebay....for $8.80 /pair. The guy is from Hong Kong....but shipping is super fast. No brand name. The LEDs are pretty small....thats how they can squeeze 6 LEDs in there.

At first....I thought he sent me some blown out ones....cuz they didnt work. I turned them around and it worked then.....i guess its sensitive to (+) and (-)....unlike regular wedge bulbs where you can just put them in and its works.

As most of you may know....LEDs are most bright when viewed straight on.....I tried to bend a few LEDs to point towards the chrome reflective housing.....i would not recommend you do this unless you know what you are doing.

Hey gang:

There are two ways to get these 6-LED bulbs:

1. Bid on eBay item, OR
2. Send me e-mail to: warden_jp2002@yahoo.co.jp

Seller name is C.H. Lau. They go for $8.80 /pair (includes shipping).....can't go wrong at this price. Super nice guy....Item is shipped from Hong Kong. It should take about a week to get to US. Faster than most U.S. ebay sellers.

That's actually pretty blue compared to the PIAA one's I purchased. I'll have pics tonight but mine match 6000k's perfectly. Pure white with a hint of purple.

Cant wait to see your LEDs....I like these....good price....not as blue as the pics show....depends on the angle. Im buying 2 more pairs for my side markers and rear license plates. Bye bye Polarg M6s and M4s.
