License Plate Lights.... What are you using ??

I currently had an LED board that a guy used to make and sell here on tech but he has now disappeared and I noticed a few LEDs are going out so I need to replace it.

I want to stick to a bright white LED look.

I just use a drop-in replacement with mine.

I think it's something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/Xenon-White-T10-...item4ceffec510
or this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2-pc-...ht_2151wt_1024
or this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2x-T1...#ht_2927wt_798

Haven't seen my car in a while so I can't be sure.

Yeah just replaced stock with another 194 LED, it's bright enough for me, haven't seen a reason to put a LED board.

If you want enough light for the plate to be visible, get an LED drop in replacement. If you want it to look

get an LED strip! (think new Lexus)
