that often depend on just How the Chip is made, the mounting base design and and plastic over all that.

Yellow above looks very diffused and if true likely have a Very wide viewing angle.

Clear plastic leds of any color often have view angles in the specs because Metal piece the chip in on and shape of plastic can focus the light in different.
Common angles just for clear 3 and 5mm thru hole are 120° 30° even 15°
Common for surface mount and some others is 90°

Other shapes the plastic bends light so a lot of output is to sides.

Clear Thru hole w/ rectangles cases can see 2 angles depending on design.

I did this to my car back in 2004 but doubt it was my car you saw.

This is something I would be interested in, especially if it was offered as a kit.
