I suppose I could take one apart and see what it looks like in there.
Hmm, that might work.

If thats the case. These bulbs are awesome and I already use them. Extremely bright. 18watts in there is VERY bright.

You can even adjust the depth they go into the housing for perfect lighting.

Those look pretty sweet! Only question might be whether there is enough room in the mirror to accommodate the old plug, and I'm not sure how many I'd need for the turn and running lights. Probably 2 per side, which means like $400 just for the bulbs. That's getting a little pricey.

The price is per pair. So $200 total.
