Is there a decent LED equivalent to a #67 bulb? These are the license plate "mini-bulbs."

LED equivalent to #67 bulb?

I am pretty sure they are around--saw many LED replacements for sale at the flea market last Sunday,that replace 1157's and many others,and I'm pretty sure the guy had some that were either #67 or #97 replacements..(I looked on google and saw some for sale for about $6..)
I was tempted to try a few of the 1157's out for $2 each,but I've read they don't always work right with a mechanical flasher..

Do you know any of the alternate part numbers for this position? I know I bought one that is in there now, but I've bought a fair number of LED's, and I'm not sure which one it is in my history of purchases.
Maybe the "BA9S"? https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=ba9s+led+white&_sacat=0&_dmd=1&_sop=15
IME the SMD (flat yellow pieces) variants are brighter and do a better job at dispersing light than the multi-LED round style.
This style of "lens" works exceptionally well for dome lights https://www.ebay.com/itm/Super-Whit...=item5d5314958e:g:IYIAAOSw0vBUjqld:rk:72:pf:0 , in the license plate position I'm thinking you want the light to be more around the perimeter of the bulb, not just the end. I noticed in the above search results if you scroll down a bit you will find LED bulbs that have a yellow "cone" on them, I have not tried those before, that might be a gimmick, or it may actually disperse light better, which is the general issue with LED's vs. incandescents.
