White Sidemarkers? e90
I bought some "white" sidemarkers from Jlevi and they are a little to blue for my liking. i'd like to match the read LEDS that are over my license plate ('08 so they came stock!) Any suggestions?

my set from Jlevi look pretty white.. it may be easier to change your license plate led to match the side markers.

easy solution is to get LEDs in there
First of all, which sidemarker are you referring to? 1. the one in the fenders? or 2. the one in the headlights that work as the turn signals as well?

We have tested a variety of LED bulbs from various manufacturers and the ones we now offer are about as white as you can get. Perhaps it's the housing that is distorting the color?

hmm not sure. i was testing them out in my dark garage after i put them on and when i lock/unlock the car and they blink they look a lot more blue than the door handle lights. I had my friend take a look and he agreed also. i'll take off the coverings and see if that is what is making them blueish? they do look very nice but if i could get a closer match to the oem LED's id prefer that
