1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette Car Light Bulb Size Guide

LEDs have a long life, they consume very little energy, and they have a super fast response time to full brightness.

LEDs last a long time

Typical LEDs have a life expectancy of 100,000 hours. That's 11.4 years of continuous, non-stop use.

A normal incandescent bulb costs 99 cents while this replacement LED bulb costs $9.99. The initial price of an LED bulb is more. But, do the math and incandescent bulbs will cost you $99 in the same length of time as an LED bulb.

Energy Comparison

LEDs are extremely energy efficient. They use 90% less energy than a normal incandescent bulb. A normal automotive size 194 bulb uses 5 watts. A normal size 194 LED Matrix bulb uses 100 milliamps which, equals one-tenth of a watt.

Now, changing out a single incandescent bulb for an LED equivalent in your vehicle will not make a big difference. But change out every bulb and you will start to see a difference. You will save money on fuel. You might also see an improvement in performance.
