Orange/Amber LED's

Does anyone have pictures of some installed in their car? I'm looking at the 4XWLED from Superbrightleds.com but the casing looks yellow and that generally is the same color of the light. However, the amber color sample they are showing looks pretty orange to me.

Any input would be great.

Re: Orange/Amber LED's

If you don't mind waiting 2-3 weeks, I always get my LED's from ebay. Takes 2-3 weeks for the slow boat from Hong Kong, but they always work fine, and you can't beat the prices (like some are 95 cents + free shipping!). And if it exists, someone in Hong Kong sells it as far as LED's go - some really cool stuff really cheap.

Where do you want to use them?

I have red LEDs in my rear outer marker lights and Amber ones in my front fender marker lights.

Re: Orange/Amber LED's

The dome light isn't a 194, it's a festoon style one.

The 4 LED ones would be your best bet in fitting. The 5 SMD ones are pretty big to fit into some of the tight area. I'd personally go with Amber, but I don't have any experience with the ones from Superbright, I got mine off of E-bay. The Amber is more of a yellow/orange then an orange.
