5000K temp 194 bulbs?

Did some searching on the forum, couldn't find any reliable information specific to a 194 LED bulb (side marker bulb) with 5000K temp output.

I purchased a Helix sidemarker set that came with a 'white' bulb, but the output is 6000K, which doesn't match my 5000K lights.

Just wondering if anyone has a 5000K temp 194 bulb.

194 LEDs are a hit or miss.

there is now way of saying what temperature they have.

from who did you buy the side marker?

the LEDs that i offer with the HELIX side markers are more on the whiter side and not blueish so that might match your lights more.

let me know if you want to try them out

Those from VLED look like they only point one direction though.

If you are interested, I could swap the 5050 6000k-7000k SMD's for ~4300k variants.

they are definitely white, im pretty picky when it comes to lighting, i stick with 4300k/5000k and the bulbs HAVE to be bright or else ill try something else
i had them on for a few days, but switched back to amber bulbs(same ones from vled but in amber color) cause they stand out too much IMO and they were super bright

they only point one direction, but they are PERFECT for side markers... all 4 leds point outwards when installed. trust me i have them

The bulbs i linked are a little pricey compared to others but the quality and brightness will not disappoint
Those are only good for side markers if ur lookin for license plate/trunk bulbs those are not the best

That's right. The orientation of the bulb is indeed outwards.
Your avatar screams, "really dude? I know what I'm saying."
