BOTH license plate lights are burned out. I remember someone switched theirs to LED's. But more than anything I just need to do know what model they are so I can give em the ol switcheroo

My chart is showing 168 - is this wrong Bean ? It's from the Sylvania website.

194's and 168's are practically identical bulbs, either type will work fine. The biggest difference between the two is that the 168 is brighter than the 194.

Well last time I had to buy a brake light bulb I opted for the LL bulbs. So far none have burned out but it's only been a few months. The extra cost is negligible.

If your going LED get the WLED-WHP6 LED Wedge Base Bulbs from Super Bright LEDs . com....

I have them on my Santa Fe and they resemble the new Lexus license lights at night.

Wow.. Never got back.

They are wedge bulbs, like the 168/194 kind and plug right in.

I now have them on my 2009 Sonata as well.
