Fog/driving light replacement

[Grif]

The Malibu bulbs i just installed from Home Despot measure .6in dia, x 1.4in long and fits EASILY in the lamp housings.

That equates to 15.24 millimeters dia x 35.56 millimeters long.

The bulb type is 194 (mainly refers to the type of connector on the base) So I go to an LED automotive light store and search to get:

http://www.autolumination.com/194.htm

Most all of those LED's will fit our standard housing. Its quite a selection, but check the dimensions listed for each bulb to be sure. If its is smaller than 15.4mm x 35.56mm then it should fit beautifully. I have a set on the way that are pushing those dimensions a bit, will report back with results. I know its not a recommendation, but its good info to know and gives you a range of types and styles to look at.

You can check here for the approximate lumens for each bulb style there in order to determine relative brightness. http://autolumination.com/specifications_194.html

Hope that helps.

Resurrecting an old thread since I'm about to buy a set of replacement fog light LEDs...

I'm looking at the Autolumination website here:

http://www.autolumination.com/194.htm

...and specifically looking at the 25 LED towers (third product down). Everything looks good except that I notice the dimensions are 11mm diameter x 38mm, which is longer than the max that Grif mentions below. Can anyone confirm that these bulbs will work before I buy?

Thanks guys!

Mav- give me a minute to look it up, I bought many of my bulbs from autolumination, but I know the front round bulbs came from ebay (motoringmax)....but I still think I ordered some of those bulbs from him....
In any event, I think I posted the length of the bulbs I got on ebay, and if I can find that post, we'll know if the 35mm will fit or not.

My original 38 LED towers (that blew up) were at least 38mm according to my info. And I recall there was some extra room, they were not touching the inner lens at all. I think you'll be fine with those towers.

Thanks Sue, just ordered them.
