i'd stay away from any led bulb that has multiple leds on it. I used many different bulbs in my previous cars from superbrightleds.com and the 4-led and 6-leds are the ones that burnt out first. the single leds are still working fine, but are not as bright....
Anyone have any led parking lights hold up to the engine bay/ headlight heat? if not i'm going to go old school and just get super white halogens again. lol

 

LED's are hit or miss. Grungepup has the VLED's and they were holding strong until yesterday

 

ive had the vleds in the parking lights for over a year with no trouble
swaped them for about two weeks with rotaryfx parking lights because they match the 6K better but they blew in about two weeks

 

Well seems mine are done also had them since the summer......kinda crazy the vendor hasnt signed in to say something about the product or quality.

 

Thank you Laythor.

Got rid of the uber shitty Rotary FX crap yellow fogs and LED parking lights bucked out for some HOEN yellows (installed ) and City driving lights (not installed yet). Best $40.00 I have spent thus far. Shitty pics but they look great in person.

 

^ Damn those hoen bulbs look great........hmmmmmmm

 

My license plate LED from FX didn't work from day one.. And now my VLEDS 194's.. 1 of them doesn't work. I just installed them!

 

So i've read through this post and have been scared away from going to RotaryFX for my parking lights. I'm gonna go to VLEDs, but a few of you said you have interior LEDs from Rotary, how are those holding up? Cuz I want to redo all my interior lights with the hyperwhite LEDs and don't feel like shelling out like $70 for lights that'll last me about as long as a tank of gas =p

 

the second pic isn't working so i can't see the parking lights, are they LED? how nice do the fogs look in person when coupled with HIDs? Cuz I definitely want to get yellow fog bulbs and was considering getting LEDs in the city lights but like i said before i'm scared to trust RotaryFX now haha

 

I have rotaryFX interior lights and they've been goin strong for a year no problems.
i was just about to start shopping for parking lights. won't be from RotaryFX

 

the VLED lights will hold up but you have to get the right ones

try these...brighter than any of the others i have had too

 

wherever you get them from they need to be SMT (brighter and more durable) and they to have heatsinks so they will not blow

 

Sorry I can't find my second pic but the Hoen city lights are not LED they are just regular bulbs but have a blue coating that makes them white somehow. My Hoen bulbs are going strong.

My rotaryFX interior lights are still working but honestly they don't get used that much since I don't drive a ton. But I have the fog light mod done and I drive with my headlights on when I drive so they get more use.

Grungepup just got a nice set of parking lights from VLEDS. They looked very high quality and the color and brightness is perfect.

 

Me too...I bought 2 two for the parking lights. One if flickering. Bought two for clear side markers both crapped out on me. POS RX8 strakes.com

 

I bought mine for the parking lights and sidemarkers like ... 2 almost 3 years ago ... no flickering ... no dead individual LEDs ... got them from RotaryFX .... still running strong ...

 

yeah I know thread revival, but I went with the projector style of these ones above, anyone else use these for their parking lights?

all leds I've had for my parking lights have burnt out .....i currently just don't have any lights there out of frustration

 

I have parking lights from superbrightleds.com, and the light set from corksport.com no malfunctions as of yet it has been about 2 months and they look pretty good.

 

I bought some LED's from China for about $6 for my interior. They are not the brightest but I've had them for almost 4 years and they haven't died yet. Just sayin...

 

I bought corners from Rorarycrapfects about 6 months ago. My left started flickering after about 2 months and then the top half died so it still looked ok and then the right started flickering and now they both are completely dead but hey, no more flickering. I still dont see a clear answer for good LEDs that wont go out guaranteed. I might try the VLEDS for the corners and parking lights but if it doesnt work, im goin back to stock. i also want some brighter fogs but i dont want those hoen yellows that 9K has...just brighter ones.

 

I have not Installed mine yet either.......

 

I've only heard good things about rotaryfx. They've been here forever. I ordered from them on my first rx8 I had before I sold it and they have good quality parts. If you're really having trouble just call their customer service. I just ordered the gasket kits, LED tail light with resistors, HID bulbs and day time lights as well as interior LED's. I'll keep you posted but I have no hesitation in using rotaryfx as far as customer service is concerned.

 

Their LEDs arent heat-sinked so they will burn out quickly. Also i had to reseal one of my clear corners because it had a bad one from them and was fogging up hardcore. I wouldnt recommend anyone to use their LEDs and if they are using the clear corners, seal them when you get them just to be safe. Other than that they seem to have a great track record.

 

Ahh .. that's horrible .. I wonder if they ever applied heat sinks to their LED's .. if not I'll be returning them real soon. How about the HID bulbs they have in stock? Are they basically trash also??
