Interior 6 LED Board Domelight / Door Light / Trunk / License Plate LED!!
A little late giving an update, but I finally had a chance to install everything - Halo license plate bulbs and 6 LED everywhere else (2 x map, 2 x door, 2 x rear, 1 x trunk). Everything looks very good and BRIGHT! The board fit everywhere fine (even the doors) and sticky tape came in handy for putting trunk light in (stock is positioned to the side, but was able to position the board closer toward the middle). The only thing I'm still working on is a good placement for map lights while hiding the wires.
Anyhow, the hardest part of this process is removing covers - manual wasn't of much help. Here are some hints (I have '09 sedan):
-- use thin instrument that doesn't bend easily (preferably, wrap it in a thin cloth like the manual shows, so it doesn't scratch anything);
-- Map/Dome - pry from the middle of the edge closer to the center of the car;
-- Door - pry from the top side, working edge to edge; just don't remove white plastic housing too
;
-- Rear - very simple, just pry from edge closer to the rear of the car;
-- Trunk - unlatch the plastic housing on one side and that's it;
-- License plate - have to remove each of the two housings (they'll still be attached by the wires obviously). Depress a plastic latch on one side and carefully remove the unit. Twist the cover while holding the round part out of which wires come out. Change the bulb and work backwards (just make sure you hear a click when putting the housings back in).
FYI, on my car all bulbs needed the same adapter. I think, it's referred to as wedge bulb.
Hope this helps!
P.S. I also got air fresheners and CF license plate covers from Henry and those work/look good too

I am loving these!!!
I just wanted to say thank you Henry for this amazing product and great customer service! I couldn't be happier! I will post some quick pics right now but I will get some more up later. Everyone seems to be placing the pics up of the after and I know I wanted more of a comparison type shot so here you go! I have plenty more haha! It feels like a new ride!!
Thanks again Henry!
something to warm up with here....
This is a side by side camparison
This is after they were both switched...
It is hard to really capture the color, but these are WHITE! I cant stand the blue tint and these have almost none! More pics later and Thanks again Henry for everything!
