I've gotten a bunch of different sets on ebay. they're all from like china and seem to not last though so I got a pack of 10 white "inverted led" w5w bulbs for about $5, they're brighter than I expected. one has gone bad in the past two months.. I use them for city lights in my headlights and I always keep them on

What model takes a W5W bulb? Never heard of it. Stock halogens are H7 and stock hids are D2S.

Not to thread jack, but how did you wire your city lights? Iwant to wire mine up but I'm not sure what to do.

I guess for the money these are good..

I think that's the same I have. they'll likely not last forever but since you'll have ten you could just replace them..

I wired my + wire from the city lights to my parking lights.
