Interior lights and suggested bulbs

I have seen previous posts that a friend sent me links for regarding the interior lights such as the dome lights and the door lights.

https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-sedan-v35-2003-06/48107-interior-lights.html

I am definitely changing the dome lights.

The door lights would be awesome for my car (athens) if I could find ones with a blue hue (nothing too dark that it looks ugly)

any suggestions for this?

thanks

I changed my dome lights to PIAA Extreme White, but this new chick I'm going out with says they are too bright/harsh. She is so damn hot the lights must be changed ASAP. Anybody have any suggestions for cool looking dome lights that are not too harsh? I didn't like the stock lights either.

haha. Are you serious? She can be so damn hot but if you like the lights keep them bro. This is leading to a long relationship of being whipped.... Not that I'd speak from experience haha.

I agree with her that the lights are too bright/harsh. I was thinking of changing them before she mentioned it. If you saw this chick, you would beg to be whipped by her

I don't care how hot a guy is, if he complains about something in my car, he gets kicked out. The map lights need to be changed cause I don't see a darn thing when I turn around looking for something on the back seat.

The problem now with the PIAA Extreme Whites is that when you turn the dome light on when you're driving at night, you lose track of the road since the light is so bright.

I've got the PIAA Extreme Whites and they're not that bad. How often do you even use the map lights while driving? I think they actually better if you're reading something because they're so bright... your eyes don't have to strain as much while reading... as for losing sight of the road, i don't really see that happening unless you're really sleepy or something. I get bothered more by oncoming traffic than turning on those lights lol

They're extremely useful when i'm getting out of the car and looking around for things i might have forgotten... I used the same lights on the doors and its good if you drop something by accident as you get out of the car...

oh and if you're gf says its too harsh then just tell her to wear shades when she gets into your car heheh...
