Vanity Light LEDs for 2015-2016 Subaru WRX (pair)

FUNCTION

Vanity lights, or the lights which illuminate the vanity mirror on your vehicle under the sun visor, use incandescent bulbs from the factory, giving them a yellowish color. By replacing these factory bulbs with LEDs, you can add a luxurious and modern look to your vehicle, with a cool white color, just like newer luxury vehicles. Sometimes a warm color is still desired with the mirror, in which case you can still upgrade brightness while using warm white LEDs.

The installation is 100% plug-and-play, just replace your factory bulb!

BULB DESIGN

SMF1:This bulb has a standard 28mm fuse-style base, with a single 5050-size Epistar SMD. Direct replacement, plug and play.

BRIGHTNESS

Diode Dynamics offers several brightness options so you can choose what fits you best. These options are listed by the design and the lumen output of each bulb:

SMF1:Slightly lower brightness than OEM bulbs, but still provides the crisp, modern color of LED.
SMF2:Slightly higher brightness than OEM bulbs.

Lumens:BUYER BEWARE!Most sellers just provide “calculated” lumen numbers, based on the maximum potential brightness of the LED chips on the bulb. For example, if a bulb has five 10-lumen chips, they will rate it at 50 lumens. However, this is not accurate, as the design of an LED bulb does not get rid of heat fast enough to run the LEDs at maximum.

These “calculated” lumen ratings are much, much higher than the true, measured light output, so it will look like competitors’ bulbs are brighter than ours. This is because Diode Dynamics does not provide inflated “calculated” numbers; we believe it is misleading. We test the actual brightness of the bulbs in our lab, to provide real lumen output measurements. Our measurements are accurate, but they are usually much lower than the misleading “calculated” figures. Pleaseclick hereto learn more about LED brightness measurement.
