I've had M4's and LED's and I think the LED's look much better. Just becareful which ones you buy because after 3 months mine started to flicker and some of the LED's burnt out completely. If they're stuck just use needle nose pliers and carefully pull them out.

Hey,
I was wondering where could i get the lights like LexBoy. I live in murfreesboro, tn. We have a O'Reileys autoparts store and Autozone.
Will they have them there, or am i suppose to purchase them from a particular place. and how much do they usually cost?
thanks

IMO I think LED bulbs have a more directional lighting form and dont cover all the area uniformly.

do you have a pic of the M4's ? I think i might do that...

Which bulbs are you guys talking about exactly? I went on ebay. typed in Polarg 194 bulbs. all the bulbs they have are "hyper white" but you can clearly see that they are blue. I don't want a blue look, does anyone have a picture of how it looks with the Polarg bulbs, I would like to see how blue it looks

I also like the polarg look as well. It looks alot more like stock 3Gen GS. The led looks too blue and the light pattern is not continuous but somewhat spotty. The polarg has a nice even pattern and the color scheme is perfect...

Can anyone update on how the "HYPER WHITE" looks on the gs, as mentioned earlier they bulbs are blue, But if it gives off a white light then i am up for it.
thanks
