Rear side marker LEDs?

[Chimera]

Anyone running LEDs in the rear side marker location in the tail lights? Looks like they are 5w5 size from the chart. Thinking about ordering Diode Dynamics HP5, which I think will fit there.


In any case anyone running LEDs in this location, comments/photos/advice appreciated. (don't want to blow up the BCU for example if this is a known issue like the problem with the BRZ door lights)


thanks!

I'm running them in my car without issues. (DiodeDynamics)

Lots of info on this already. I ran LEDs in my OEM tails, just had to change the flasher under the dash.

I was looking for the side markers not the turn signal location

those LED bulbs I referred to look like this by the way. 360 degrees light output

Our HP3 and HP5 red LED replacements a perfect for this application. The diffuser lens will spread the light output evenly and give a nicer looking red color being that OEM red lens.
