I got a 2011 lancer SX and I want to change the whole headlight bulbs set and I came across with some LED lights by Sealight. That is fine but I am a bit confused with the type of bulb in the parking light. One of the guy in the forum says that its a WY5W 194 5 watt bulb but I want to change it to an LED bulb. I am used to the types of headlight bulbs but I have no idea in this. I just searched this up on amazon and this came up : -
https://www.amazon.com.au/Yorkim-Genera ... 7192&psc=1With what I've came across with is the '194' number is the same. Can you guys please guide me with this?
Thanks in advance

Parker LED are.on the shelf at Autobarn and Repco
The brand you want is "aerpro" same as the guys who make the audio adaptor cables to put an aftermarket stereo in your car
From memory they were $30
They are incredibly bright.
Also seeing though your car comes with halogen bulbs for driving lights, when you replace them with LED the angle the light hits the reflector changes and then blinds people and is there for not only dangerous but highly illegal as well

Just backing up Bumblebee....you can't retro fit LED globes into your headlight the light output is actually worse than halogen globes so you see less. Don't waste your money.

Guys, I am not talking about the high beam and low beam bulbs, I am talking about those little parking light bulbs at the lower corner of the headlight, I want to replace them to those little LED white lights so that if I want to change the whole bulb kit....it won't look miscolour match

Those look like they may fit the ones you linked to originally
Hard to tell with out dimensions
The Parker bb's in the car at moment are in a long grey holder
If you have a look in your owner manual it tells you the size and type they are
If you want bright led Parker light get from these guys
https://aerpro.com/products/lightingThey have dealer all over the planet
As for colour of lights if you make them something silly like red, blue etc then expect to be pulled over by the constabulary
Hope this helps

The parker lights you linked should fit, however it is a small housing and I know the colour changing bulbs from eBay do not fit lol.

Stick to white LED in the front of your car and you won't get any unwanted visit from the local constabulary
