DRL to LED
Want to replace front drl light with LED. Auto Zone tells me 3157A is the correct bulb. For that amount of $ want to be sure it is correct. Package states: also fits compatible 3457/4157. Thanks.

You could have Google autozone and the part number yourself and used fit my car, instead ask someone else, but yes they fit. Welcome.

It may or may not necessarily fit. Tall LED bulbs will not fit in the housing. It will not take anything much taller than the stock bulb.
Additionally, you will want to check whether or not your housing has cracked. If it has, rain and water can get inside and kill your LED bulb.

Look at length dimensions as others mentioned, and select accordingly. Anyone know the length of the stock bulbs to help in the selection of bulbs?

Measure twice, order once ;^) Or buy from Amazon so you can easily return the too long bulbs........

I'm a 70 year old female & enjoy doing small jobs on my '03. Great feeling of accomplishment in replacing the housing didn't want to mess them up w/wrong bulb. The forum has helped me on every project.
Again, thank you all for the forum!
