Default LED DRL bulbs for 2011-2013 WK2

I want to replace the stock DRL/Parker bulbs in my 2013 with some nice white LED's.

My apologies from the start though, as I know this topic has been done to death over the years. BUT, having searched the threads I can't draw a firm conclusion on the best replacements that will last and not cause problems.

I'm after quality rather than cheap, and so far I've found Osram P21/5w LED's at powerbulbs.com.au but I'm not sure if they're suitable for the Jeep spec (P27/7w) without throwing a fault.

Could anybody who's been running LED's in their DRL/Parkers successfully for a good period of time please tell me what you use and where you sourced them from?

Many thanks in advance.
Tony.

Hi Tony,

I have been running these for over a year with no problems. The colour matches in nicely with headlamps as well.

Thanks guys. I came across those in my research but it helps to know they're likely to work well, so I'll give them a try.

Cheers,
Tony.

I've also had those in for over a year and half with no dramas (touch wood).

Can one of the posters on this thread please provide a new eBay link, I’m getting one too, but the link has expired and I don’t want to guess as it could go badly wrong if not tried and tested. Which is why I have stayed away so long. Good to hear of positive experiences and keen to try.

Ps: I also just replaced the main beams on my Jeep. 6000k 3,200 lumens. Will see how they look tonight in the journey back from work.

I used the link posted by TRA1LHAWK and checked again just now, it's still working. Otherwise just type in search on eBay as follows: 3157 Cree super bright white LED bulbs for Jeep Grand Cherokee 2010-2013 . The seller is 'autoxenonled'
