Any body know the size of the bulb for the DRL's? Sylvania's site shows these: 2825LL which is a wedge bulb. so it is wrong. anybody know?

Top right corner bulb is called the 'city light'. You can find the size in this sticky. Also, yes.

Nice...Where can i find those...?
I thought there werent any, but now I see there are...

I got it from here: http://www.automotivelightingusa.com...roducts_id=527

It looks sweet, but it's not very bright. I'm probably gonna replace it with some LEDs sometime.

How long have you had those lights on? Have you had any problems with them being too hot and melting the housing like the problems with the HOEN city lights?

THanks,

THanks,

I've only had them on a couple days, but I don't expect them to have any heat issues. It's pretty much an identical bulb to stock, except for color. And there's plenty of open space around it. I'll be running them for a couple hours this afternoon, though, so we'll see. Also, note that this is not the city light, it's the DRL.

I think the stock ones are ugly... but xenon match looks nice.

i've had piaa xtreme white 1156 bulbs in my DRL's for over half a year now, and have had no problems with them melting any plastic.

[cstarky15]

well thanks for letting me know that the lights are 1156. And i was hoping someone would have a "xenon" colored pair that would chime in! the look great!

How are the xtream whites???

Do you have a picture with them on during the day?

stock on the left, piaa xtreme white on the right. they look a little more white than in the pics, but you can see the difference from the stock. i'm happy with them... well, at least until i can get some LED DRL's in there! but recently, i find myself driving around more with the headlight switch in the parking light position. i like showing off my LED citylights!

I use the PIAA's too - but have swapped mine with the indicator positions as I think it makes the car look wider - I also moved what you call the city lights too

Thanks for the picture. So the Piaa's are kind of white/amberish right? Not so much white/blueish like leds?

btw, what kind of led bulbs are you running?

Thanks,

nice...that's what i like to hear!

[cfujikawa]

the piaa's are pretty white, but you can definitely tell they're bulbs and not LED's. Like you said, not as blue as LED's. i'm running Buttafuoco's LED citylights. they work great!
