After another close call last night, I want to put the brightest possible LED (fender) side marker lights in my 2002 V. Recommendations? Thanks

These are in the 08 C30 T5 front lens. They reside in the high beam compartment of the headlight assembly but we use the parking light setting and they are bright during the day and night. LED's can be bright but not project. These do not project.

Fender side marker lights meaning assembly. LED bulbs are what will light them up. Most are T10's.

I would recommend buying a pack of LED light strip from eBay, they are 12" (11.81") 5050 SMD. You will need to rewire the side marker lights to connect them. I used 3528 SMD strips on my 01 v70 base when I had it. But the 5050 SMD chip is about 3x brighter. Example of rewired SML w/ 3528 strips:
06 Odyssey LX, silver, 127921, current
98 V GLE/SE red, 379k, 5sp, trailer in progress...
95 854 Turbo 258K, auto, sold
09 Rav4 Ltd3.5Fwd, red, 208k/213k, sold
05 CRV EX AWD, Navy, 170K/184k, sold
03 Accord 2dr V6 silver, 196K/232K, 6sp, t-boned, sold
98 S GT white, 175K, 5sp, sold
96 964 silver, 146K, diff&trans/engine self-destr, crushed 😭
98 XC black, 151K, flooded&bent rod, crushed
01 V Base white, 168k, traded for XC
09 Impala LT1 gray, 196K, sold for 01
