First tried these and they were a hair too long. Ended up putting them in as my reverse lights.

Got these and they are nice and bright. Stock lights had something like 80 lumens and these have 177 so double the light output.

I also got some led fog lights from Amazon that were pretty good. Honestly the output doesn't even matter since the HID projectors are so epic.

Originally bought some LED puddle lights from autozone but they turned out to only be 70 lumens and I wanted my puddle lights to be brighter so I used those in the license plate. I wanted all the exterior lights to might the 'clear white' of my headlights.

Was there any issue with a bulb out message? If not I am definitely ordering some for my puddle and plate lights
 






I dont have the message center but as far as i know those lights are not included in my bulb out check... Only brake lights, turn signals and i still have normal bulbs in those... My fogs dont give errors either when they burn out
 






I have message center and currently have the headlight error with my relay HID projector set up. I've got a non resistor plan to resolve it that I'll post about soon.

I have LED fogs, puddle lights and reverse lights with no error so you are good to go.

Have you checked with superbrightleds.com they have an extensive array of LEDs along with a great website that tells you everything you need to know about each product. NO! I don't have stock in the company. I wish I did back in 2003 when I started using their co.
