I seen a Lexus with it stock. Why not?
This eBay led kit has all of the led bulbs you need to make all of your bulbs shiny bright and fancy bluish white. It includes the license plate bulbs.

I went with some LEDs from superbrightled.com for the license plate lights. While they are definitely brighter (and a pure white color like the Lexus), they tend to reflect off the white paint and make the backup cam look sort of slightly hazy at night. Nothing that I can't put up with but it's definitely there. I installed the same LEDs in my black 4th gen but there is no glare in the backup cam from them.

Don't forget to start a build thread afterwards ...
I'll save the best for last.

I have the Yitamotor kit in the link below, the T10/194 Samsung 5630's they use work great for the plate lights:
18pcs Deluxe White LED Bulbs 2010 2015 for Toyota 4Runner Interior Package Kit | eBay
If you just want the license plate lights I would get the Philips Vision's. Regardless of what they say, they are 5000k (same as Lexus etc.)
Amazon.com: Philips 127996000KB2 Bright White Interior Vision LED Bulb (Pack of 2): Automotive
A T10/194 comparison here:

I would recommend the Philips Blue Vision 194 T10 bulbs. They are bright and mostly white with only a tiny hint of blue. (rated at 6000K)

I did it on mine
I bought the Xenondepot Phillips LED bulbs for the license plate bulbs and they look great at night. I like it because it runs with lower power and are brighter. The LED bulbs are the same ones you would use for the vanity mirror doors and map lights. Go for it! super easy to install just unscrew two screws and pull bulbs out. I also replaced my back up lights with the Xenondepot Phillips bulbs both the license plate bulb and back up light bulbs caused no glare on my rearview camera instead they made the camera look like it was a night vision camera it picks up a lot of detail in reverse pitch black.

Not disrespecting your product, I have your HIDs and they're great, just not a fan of brighter license plate bulbs.

Hey,
I didn't take offence at all - you're not the first person to say that. I just found your response funny (for some reason).

This is another one of those threads where I just sit here and scratch my head asking why.
Why the hell do I care about making my license plate more visible? Why the hell would I want to do this? Is this a bling thing? I hate bling and to be honest I want my license plate just bright enough to keep the cops happy and no more.
This is a dumb thread. Sorry. It is.

tell us how you really feel (joke)
Why have HID's and led's in the front and boring, ugly yellow bulbs for your plates?
I find many dumb threads, but instead of posting something that won't be constructive like your post just did....I just move on.
