Guys, do yourselves a favor and get some led's! So much cleaner!
Halogen

LED's!!!!!

 

Looking good, you've got me interested. Which bulbs did you choose?

 

those are not halogen, they are incandescent

 

love it

 

+1 on the LEDs for the clearance bulbs (found on all 03-04 sedans, and I believe the same years for the coupe model as well). I have the bluish white LEDs for my clearance bulbs and they match well with the HIDs. I got mine from SuperBrightLEDs.com (think I paid around $2 per LED). They've been in my car for more than a year, and no issues at all.

 

I purchased from V-Leds.com Order arrived in about 2 days.
Now, there are some crazy ones available with many surface mount LED's and such. I just wanted a nice clean look, nothing too loud. Also, by buying the simple ones, I was sure that they would fit perfect as they are no bigger than the originals.
For headlights, side markers, and rear plate I used

I also replaced all interior lights with

The cabin now lights up nice and white. When you get in the car at night it is much nicer to look at. Really goes will with the luxury theme. Just make sure you get white, otherwise it will make a move toward rice lol.

I have a 5SMT and 9SMT LED 194/168, bastards dont fit into the headlight housing. I had to use a single high power LED SMT. Still looks good though
So be careful choosing, people!

 

Yepp. I think they do make them with 3 surface mount led's in the same small size that I have. I think they were low on stock, plus I just wanted them to blend nicely with the car, not stand out.

 

weird.. ive got 17SMT leds in my driving light on my coupe housing.. they fit fine

 

the 5 SMT doesn't FIT?!?!?

 

i've been buying those from superbrightleds.com
the site is cheaper

 

can you post night pix?

 

thehitt - are the LED's you choose as bright as the factory bulb in the headlight housing (driving light).

 

I heard somewhere that installing the clearance bulbs was difficult. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but could you share some experience? Thanks!

Also...for those of you with the 5SMT that don't fit....did you get them from v-led's or superbrightleds?

Thanks Much!

 

^ Yes, getting to the clearance bulbs is a bit tricky. I had to pull down the wheel well covering and feel out for the socket holder that holds the bulb while eyeing the headlamp outside and making sure the part I'm grabbing is the right part. Once you find the socket holder (it's a relatively long and skinny part), just twist counterclockwise and pull out, and from there you can replace the bulb.
