V-LEDs for Interior and License Plate

Sup fellow driver members...I'm not sure why, but I stayed up until 5am last night looking at interior and license plate LEDs...I ordered a bunch of LEDs for the car and it was a bit pricier than I thought they would be...

I spent $72 shipped:

2 x 2 HID WHITE SMT 5 LED LIGHT BULBS 194 168 (door and trunk lights)

1 x 2 SMT HIGH POWER HID WHITE LED LIGHT BULBS 194 168 (rear dome lights)

2 x 2 HI POWER SMT 3 LED HID WHITE VANITY LIGHT BULB 31mm (vanity)

1 x 2 HID WHITE 3 M-SMT 1.5W HIGH POWER BULBS 194 168 (map lights)

1 x 2 HID WHITE 4 M-SMT 2W HIGH POWER BULBS 194 168 (license plate)

All of the LEDs are either SMT or m-SMT...I'll post some pics when I get them on...instead of buying 7 shots of patron I bought a bunch of LEDs...yay

Yup... one of the first things I ever did when I got my car. They seemed reasonably priced... but when you want to change out nearly everything... it really adds up. But, it's work it.

did you check out any for the rear signals? I found these but aside from the high price, i'm not sure if they'd even fit. http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...id/0/SFV/32481

Don't buy, those not worth it. Tim changed out his signals to LEDs, looks much better, now.

The one in your link, yes... they're LEDs... but way overpriced and not worth it. More LEDs doesn't necessarily mean brighter lighting. So don't waste your time buying those.

The one in my link, Tim uses a higher output LED that doesn't have that retarded flower pedal design and it has plenty of light output and costs much less that the one in your link.

i just installed the LEDs yesterday...pictures didn't come out to great for the interior even though its very bright inside...the license plate LED picture are the only ones that came out okay...i know they're a little blurry but i didn't want to photoshop the license plate (lazy)...the license plate LEDs were the ones that cost $30/pair...they're solid LEDs and the fit was so tight i had to jam the LEDs in the socket...which is a good sign to me because I think I tried using the plastic end piece LEDs and it was flickering because the fitment wasn't tight...

I got my LED interior/license plate lights from www.ijdmtoy.com. Very easy to install, wife loves them and now wants me to order a set for her '99 Q45t.

These are great- here's what JDM toy sent me- will try to post pics soon:

For 2007 G35 Sedan, you will need a 10 lights LED complete package that covers its map lights, dome lights, side door lights, parking city lights and license plate lights.

The price for this 10 Lights LED complete package is 49.99 dollars plus 5.99 dollars for combined discount shipping and handling.
