The city lights are 2825's I have yellow ones in mine. Some guys go crazy when they see it at night because my hid's dont look white enough but I like the yellow when I am gassing up, or at dusk.
They are used in instruments, along with the interior dome.

Growing up the car magazines said how amazing Porsches are. Was I brainwashed? Somehow...I doubt it.

there was a thread here: renntech link where a guy put in LEDS for the parking lights. Guys also cut out the amber internal turn signal lens and put in silver lights that flash amber. Well, after tearing my front trunk apart last wknd installing litronics in my '01S, I'm going to save that job for another day. PITA

That's interesting... the Renntech link you gave lists the city/parking light as a standard 194 bulb. That's not what's in my litronics though. Mine are a H6W bulb and at the auto parts store they had it listed as the 2825 that Gary referred to (I think they're the same). There must be a difference between different years of the litronics... The 194 would be easier to replace as it's more common.

I'm not sure I'm going to do the amberdectomy on my litronics (cutting out the amber turn signal plastic). I think the litronics look MUCH better than stock. I can't say that the tiny remaining amber really bothers me. We'll see if it does grow to bug me though.
