I just installed the 20 LED on the dome lights (very tight fit)
I dont know how you guys were able to put in 16 LED on the door, it
sticks out too much, I think am gonna go with 12 LED instead.

And how the hell do you intall the bulb on the vanity lights?
the bulb is very small and is soldered to this little plastic board.

That sure can happend since it just happend to me
Not only that but I tried grabbing it with tweezers just like you and
end it up burning the bulb, after that my center console lights and licence plate lights stopped working

do you have to remove the screws on the lower globebox to reach the bulb from inside?

if you have an 03-05 car don't bother with the vanity bulbs unless you're good at soldering.

I really like the color output of the dome lights.
does anyone know of any D2S bulb that might give a similar color output?
Ultinons maybe? howabout the Mtecs?

Has anyone tried this H1 bulb

I'm not sure if it would fit.
