Uhh, well.. They will most likely be more white than stock, but I don't think it will be the same as the pics. I got LED bulbs for mine and I love 'em. They really have that high-end, kind of Lexus look.

v-leds.com

Pretty sure these are the ones I got if I remember correctly.

I've tried to get pics, but my camera just can't get low-light exposure, all of my pics make them look blue.

As far as I know, 168 has the same base as a 194 so they should work either way just like a regular filament type bulb. The only bulbs/sockets you have to worry about with LED's are turn signals/brake lights, sometimes the LED's won't flash like a stock type bulb, that's where people run into trouble.

Actually I drive a Mountaineer, not a Mustang... Since I haven't even seen my car since Christmas day, much less driven it. Hell, it doesn't even have liability insurance on it right now, just comp.

Here's some pics of the LED front turn signals... Believe it or not, I actually picked them up back when i was driving a big truck at a truck stop. I'll get some pics of the tag lights tonight when it gets dark n post them. I think i got them online like on ebay or something really cheap. And no, they're not blue or two different colors. They're just plain ole white. I took the pics with my phone so i guess its just the glare or something is why they look a lil different.

I don't know about where you live, but here in GA, any color other than white will get you a hefty ticket. I know from experience. I had blue ones in my old F-150, got a ticket, so i put green ones in there, got ANOTHER ticket, and it was explained to me by the judge the second time, that any color bulb other than white in your tag lights is illegal.

I'm an incredibly picky perfectionist that spends way too much time obsessing over tiny unimportant mods for my car that most people would never notice and I got these. http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/C...-p4481083.html

Plenty bright and look way better than the standard filament bulb.. Save your $5.
