    HID parkers?

    i've put a HID kit in my GU ST coil cab. the parkers (lights under front indicator) are still the yellow light and look crap. also one is blown anyway. can i get HID's or a white globe to replace the yellow ones? any advise would be great.

    HID park lights may be just a LITTLE too bright! I think what you want is LED's. Nice white light.

    I agree with Tony, LED's would be ideal for parkers, HID would be way too bright

    Mate I have recently done the same to my Gu Patrol
    In the Parkers beside the headlight I used off Ebay
    12v T20 W3 x 16D 12 Led white reverse/Ind wedge globe $12.95
    In the Nissan Steel Winch bar
    12v 9 Led T18 BA15S $9.95

    Ebay username: Jagtradingonline

    Postage was $7.00 per item and 50 % off second postage price

    They look awesome with the Hid headlights as they match in perfectly

    Hope this helps
    Cheers
