Default Which Parking Light?

I've decided to change the parking light because the stock ones didn't appeal to me.
Anyway, I've come across these 2 (although relatively expensive, perhaps good quality?):

$13.99


which is basically a 6-LED

[more info HERE]

Now the other one is $15.99, a bit more expensive, but wide-angle high power:


[more info HERE]

Which do you think would be better for the S2000's parking lights?

Just looking for opinions and recommendations

PS: Oh one more thing, anyone want to double check to see if the sizes for the bulbs fit correctly? I'm not 100% sure if they actually are correct sizes.

edit:// These are supposed to be both the same white color

WHITE! I'd go for the side angle. I think they would overall look more clean and brighter. I'm ordering them as we speak.

Hehe, amber is good, but not matching my color scheme I think.

I have 8000k HID lights on a Laguna Blue Pearl S2000, so I want the shiny white to help balance everything I guess haha (the wheels are stock shiny silver )

I'm wondering which one would be more clean looking once they are in the car viewing from the front perhaps.

I really think the second wide angles will look a lot nicer and cleaner. They also look a lot brighter. The wide angles would look cleaner because I've seen those '4 or 6 LED' lights on cars before and you can see the outline of each light. Not cool!

The outline of each light? As in you can see the LED bulbs inside the housing?

Yeah exactly. Just my opinion though for a more cleaner look.
