One of my marker bulbs was burned out so I just replaced them with 7 watt LED bulbs. I found out it was burned out when I was in Ouray so when I got home I ordered them.

Bought some CREE 194 marker lights a while back and they did not fit.

Problem with most of the high power LED 194 bulbs is they are way longer than stock and much bigger than the stock bulbs above the plug so they do not fit in the socket well or at all. I looked around for a bright CREE that would fit RIGHT in the S10 and finally found one here: http://autolumination.com/194.htm

Look for this bulb titled CREE Beam XPE and you should be happy with the result. Notice the diameter is consistent with the stock bulb and the length is just a bit longer.

Me too. I'll just let them burn out. With my HID's being wired up with switched power, those marker lights don't even make a tiny bit of difference. Never really did before, just an appearance factor.

Aren't there some rules about what color directional indicators can be? I think clear lenses are fine if you use the right color bulb inside.

Some of us have installed LED bulbs that are white when just driving, but turn amber when they blink. It's really pretty clever.
I suspect that 's what those in the pic are.

Care to elaborate, linky?

TIA!
