As expected from LEDs, color temperature is much much whiter than OEM bulbs but not brighter because they only have 3 rear facing LEDs. They are a little tricky though. Sometimes they don't plug in just right and it makes it seem like they are burnt out. Just make sure you test them before you screw everything back into place.

The bulbs are awesome but they definitely are not street legal. They aren't the same as your stock bulbs in the sense of working the same way.

Within two weeks of bringing her new car home, my Bride left the parking lights on overnight and drained the battery. From that point I decided to change the incandescant bulbs to LED's in order to reduce the possibility of that happening again. I have so far replaced the tail lights and the map lights with these bulbs. The result of a red LED bulb in a red lense is a deeper hue in the tail lights. The LED map lights are whiter and brighter than the original 194 bulbs.

Purchased with the belief that they would be brighter than stock. That is not the case. Little if any increase in brightness to brake or backup lights.

This 360 bulb works well in a auto fixture that is designed for the standard filament bulb. It has a good contrast between the park and brake light and is brighter than the factory bulbs. The main reason these were purchased is for the faster response of LEDs as an added safety feature. The turn signal mode requires a resistor but was easy to install. A heavy duty turn signal flasher may have also solved the fast flash symptom. All in all it's a great product; much improved from the early LEDs.

The bulbs I have had in the past are very bright and require less electricity (they are in a 05 Honda Accord Hybrid), the previous bulb did burn out after 2 1/2 years. I am still waiting for the bulb I ordered which apparently had to be manufactured before being shipped. I would recommend LED bulbs for safety reason on all vehicles.

I purchased these to replace my stock back up lights. They are a good product but probably the wrong choice for back up lights. The original 3157 bulbs where brighter. I probably should have tried the Putco neutron LED bulb. It has a brighter light and focused out the back and not a 360 light. As always great service from Auto Anything.

Bought these lights to have a brighter canopy light when setting up hunting decoys during waterfowl season. Haven't tested them out in the field but it looks like they are about the same brightness. The only difference would be that they are more of a criper light.

One has already quit working and they aren't as bright as I would like them to be.
