Ide say rewire the with just regular led's but prob more work than it would be worth for the less money

I plan on rewiring all of my 2nd gen, probably going to do New amber LEDS and just solder resistors etc. the wiring is so shitty on them

is there a website to find the oem 194 led bulb in the 1st gen projector lights?
cuz i have bought wedge bulb 194 and they don't stay in the socket of the housing. so if i could get the oem ones it would be easier.
