Question LED sidemarkers that match LED headlights?

(Apologies if this has been covered somewhere - I did a search and couldn't find quite what I'm looking for.)


I have a 2018 BRZ with clear JDM side markers, but the bulbs they came with (84920CA020) don't match the color/intensity of the LED headlights.


Any idea where to buy sidemarker LED bulbs that match the headlights more closely?

I also use the Diode dynamics LEDS, they match other LEDs perfectly.

Thanks! Any suggestion on which lumen level would work best? 24/56/92?

I have tons of Diode Dynamics products, and they have all worked flawlessly with the notable exception of the HP3s, as I've had several of them fail, so I would go with the HP5s, which are what I have now

I have the HP5s, my HP3s started flickering and having issues when my knock off jdm sidemarkers started letting water in. Once I got OEM clear sidemarkers and HP5s I had no issues.

If I get time I'll upload some pics, but they match my winjets perfectly and if I remember correctly the hp5s have the highest lumen rating.

MUCH better color match. They are a tad bright (hard to see here) but overall a definite improvement!
