Same. Work just fine.

Yes, but I think the more energy efficient and longer lasting LED bulbs are also a good choice.

Yes, I would replace the non-LED with LED in every instance possible. I would start with Amazon, sponsors of this site, and auto parts stores’ website - Advance Auto Parts, etc. I buy locally when it makes sense for me.

Sounds great. If you're interested in LED bulbs, AUXITO will include you as one of our valued review partners and send you a free pair of high-performance products to review, I'm sure you'll be impressed with AUXITO's products.

Replace a halogen for another?
Nah...move to LED..

I’m shocked halogens are still a thing on anything other than work trucks

Energy efficient for a car bulb? How so.

Yes, sir， automotive LED bulbs are more energy-efficient than halogen lights because they operate on a different principle of light production.
Halogen bulbs produce light by heating a filament until it becomes white-hot, and this process requires a lot of energy. On the other hand, LED bulbs use semiconductors that emit light when an electrical current is passed through them. This process is much more energy-efficient because very little heat is produced, and almost all the energy is converted into light.
Additionally, LED bulbs have a much longer lifespan than halogen bulbs, which reduces the frequency of bulb replacements and the overall energy consumption. LED bulbs also emit less heat, reducing the load on the vehicle's cooling system and increasing fuel efficiency.

Efficiency in an automobile bulb is not relevant. It runs off the alternator/battery. Who cares? Not the same as running off the grid.

The carbon footpront required to manufacture LED is greater than standard bulbs. Especially since you have to factor in the other items required for LED......AC-DC power supply, LED driver, LED (sometimes multiple LED Chips), heat sink, etc.

But yes, LED lasts longer.
