What does the light socket look like? It should be pretty easy to determine which one it is. Are they press-in or screw-in bulbs?

Also, do the amber bulbs fit in the clear sockets? Because if so - the bulb numbers for the two will be nearly identical.

5v or 12v? All lamps are 12v.



Here are some LED wedges....

Gotcha.



MazdaMike, the only downside to getting LEDs is that it may play havoc on your blinker thinger. I don't know what kind the 7 has, (thermal or electronic). I think the electronic ones get screwed up cause of resistance or something and when you pop in an LED, it thinks that that particular bulb is out, so it will do the blink way too fast for your sanity thing. I haven't tried it out on mine yet, so I could be wrong.

Oh yeah, for those that's no issue. I've got 'em on my daily driver too, but its the turn signal part that's the issue. Sorry...I didn't clarify that.
