Parking light replacements

So my parking light blew and wanted to replace it with a led bulb went to Wal-Mart and bought the pilot brand and the Sylveon brand and both did not work indication came up just like the light was blown but Power was received to the lights so my main question is can I replace these with any type of LED bulb that will make the vehicle think that it is working 100% or do I have to stick with stock

One of two things needs to happen: either replace the bulb with a CANBUS error free LED bulb, or code out the voltage monitor to the front parking lights.

I have the voltage monitors turned off in my car, and I have replaced just about every bulb with an LED. I have no bulb out messages.

Thanks for the mention. No bulb out errors with our canbus ones and if you ever have an issues we are here to help. The front bulbs in the up light on the bumper are position lights (aka parking lights). ES2684738
