Default New Driving Lights

So i did a little research on whats legal in my state and white turning signals arent legal in WV thats cool and all but i DO NOT like my amber driving lights, so i wanted to switch them to white. i then saw "switch back blinker" and i am interested in purchasing some for my 300es 00 and installing them.
Does anyone know a firm or a credible website that sells them, and also what size do i have to buy them in order to fit thru the housing?


i case u dont know what imm talking about ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-Bin...eature=related )

Bulbs are from V-LEDS.
I think he got the bulbs from V-Leds.

Wow, newbs.

First, learn how to spell, most people here don't speak stupid.

Second, how can a 0.5 second Google search NOT tell you that V-Leds is a reputable firm.

Third, had you bothered looking outside the Es300 forum, to uhhh, lets say the 'lighting forum' you would see, numerous reviews/etc on all sorts of lighting mods/upgrades. henceforth you would find numerous threads about V-leds and pictures of their quality.

Last, why do you insist on calling this a conversion? It is a plug n play bulb.

All YOU need to do is put those google fingers to work.

Sylvania.com has a search tool that allows you to look up the car you want and lists all the bulb types in the car.
Another option is to simply go in, remove the bulb yourself and read the stamping/description off the bulb itself that is found in your corner marker.

Last, this is going to look pretty bad, as you notice the Maxima has a clear lense, the lense found in the ES300 corner light is grooved so the light is going to be dispersed NOT direct. It will shine brighter in the middle and spread out thereafter.

Do you need anymore explanations?

Can you really tell my level of education just by the way i write? I am willing to put money on that my education level is much higher than yours. You say people on here dont speak stupid yet again you understood my question? Look at your own spelling before questioning mine, i can point out 3 mistakes in the post you made.

Please dont try to troll me just because i am new to the forums. I had a question and it is now resolved, all i asked for was people's help, not your criticism.

ANYWAY!

The problem has been resolved and thanks for everyone's help.
