Those would work.

I have these for the license plate lights. Really bright and pure white light.

you'll need 2 bulbs, but it says "one pair". so you'll just need to order a quantity of 1. I have some that look identical from diode dynamics, work great.

I personally think that the 5 LED bulb would be way too bright. I went with the 2 LED bulb and it's perfect but I didn't want my plate to be crazy bright anyways. Just wanted to kill the awful halogen look.



I got mine from diode dynamics. If you do decide to order from them, please use me as a referral

I'll get another picture tonight once it gets dark out from a few feet away. They look less blue in person. More of a pure white. I want to say they're equivalent to 6000K
