Warning: Wrong Bulbs In Manual

Just a heads up guys, the owners manual and RealOEM have the wrong bulbs listed for the F34. I went today to finish my LED conversion, and the PY21W bulbs listed for the front turns are wrong.

The correct bulbs are:
Front turn signals - PY24W amber
Reverse - P21W white
Outer brake - H21W red
Inner Brake/rear fogs - H21W red
Rear Turn signals - P21W red or amber, your choice
Front fogs - H8


All of them are available from Horizon LEDs, who is a vendor here, and all require coding to disable bulb warnings.

Do you find the LED bulbs are bright enough? I got the LED bulbs as the break light for my other cars 2-3 years ago.... They weren't bright enough to be visible with day light! For the sake of safety I ended up fall back to the regular bulb.

The 30W brake lights are almost the exact same brightness as stock. I'm currently waiting for Horizon to get the 50W ones in so I can tint my tails. The turn signals and back ups are already 50W and are super bright.
