Default 2007 LS460 L Bulb replacement

Has anyone replaced the front passenger side parking/running light?
Tha manual says "Go to dealer." It lights the bottom inside corner of headlight housing. Almost looks "L.E.D. like."

Default Thanks

Thanks. I plan to remove grill soon to replace. I like the orange look I saw here. I may try the 921's.

The 921s are bright but they get hot and will burn out fast and may pop in the housing. Mine did and got lucky the pieces didn't fall in..just find the shortest and brightest LED and use those. I settled on amber 194 leds from autozone..put a nice glow in housing with no heat..after numerous grill removals and fkn with that small confined area..I gave up

Default Nike bulb replacement

I replaced them today. Taking the two plastic tabs out of the top of the grill was the hardest part. I had an extra long pair of pointy nose pliers that was very important. I replace with 194NA L.E.D.'s I bought at Auto Zone. Look very close to side marker lights.
Now I want to install 8" L.E.D's in grill.

Related question: How do I get access to the side marker bulb? The one behind the orange tinted plastic on the outer edges of each housing?
