First of all, my car is black with shadowline trim 750IL prod date 3/99 and I'm looking for non Celis($$$) Led's that are clear on the top and red on the bottom. I also have clear corners and markers.

Got a couple of questions:
1.Where is there a place that sells an altezza style that is clear on top and red on the bottom? ebay only has smoked top/red bottoms and I'm not liking the chrome all clear ones.
2.Do I have to pay attention to the brand because I think I saw somewhere that the wrong ones will give a warning light somewhat similar to the incorrect bulbs for the rear license plate?
3.Are there any other type's of led's other than Celis and altezza style's out there?
4.Since they might not have my first option, should I just ditch the clear's and have smoked corner's, marker's and tails?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated and I'm also asking for opinions, don't worry, you won't hurt my feelings(I hope):nono

#3 all i have ever seen is led or celis (you want to look at oem as possible IMO, if not you make a Beautiful car look like cheap china.

Bavarian Autosport sells some non-Celis leds that look OEM until you turn them on, I think they are around $300.

Why do they charge so mutch for those... They arent any different then the leds from ebay and they want 340 bucks for a pair?? They sell the celis / led for the same price, the used to be the same on ebay until the sellers figured they could get more for the celis style.
:confused

I like these because the led's extend into the brake lamp area. I hesitated on these because the years show 95-98 and 750 is not listed as a style. I thought maybe the connections were different. Are they?

I like those but the led's don't go all the way down(theres a bulb below the 3 led rows). I wish they had a parking/braking pic.

I hear you on that one (my CELIS lights are the same way, and I have a solution:

I went with these and I've had great results. They fit right in where the regular incandescent bulbs normally would, but they're led! I plan to get some more of these style bulbs for my turn signals front and rear, because they'll give the same look that a stealth bulb would, but blink amber with the speed and intensity of an LED.

Nope they're all the same.

Okay I bought a couple for the reverse lights and I already got some of those chrome bulbs for the signals and markers(yes I got ripped off on those bulbs) $30+ for six bulbs(ebay)lol I hate ebay but geez I can't stop going there.
