Thanks guys,
ok for the headlights i followed this thread, https://g35driver.com/forums/showthr...highlight=CCFL
in conjunction with this thread, https://g35driver.com/forums/engine-drivetrain-forced-induction/16265-smoked-headlight-housing-clear-turn-signal.html
but i painted the housing black instead. i also replaced the blinker with Walmart mini-camping-lantern lense thing, which i cut and it fitted perfectly, i also changed the bulb to a 7440, instead of 7443, because i guess they don't make the 7443 bulb in amber. but the 7440 bulbs doesn't exactly fit, so i have to dremel some edges off.

for the licence plate holder, i actually needed an extra inverter for the ccfls so i took that one and just desided to try some leds. i got a clear paper holder, cut it to make a rectangular box, and wired 19 single LEDs together (each with its own resistor) and put a lot of silicone to seal it.

for the door, dash and seat panels its the same thing, 4 or 5 single leds with there own resistors wiring in parallel. oh and trunk too. the dome lights have 10 leds on each side. same thing, the door leds act in conjuction with the doom, yes they dim like stock. and the floor turns on when doors open, and dim when doors close. or i have a switch i can flick and they turn on, either the white or blue (i also wired), (makes it easy to find something if you dropped it).

all the singe LED's are fromm ebay, you can get like 100 for 20 bucks. (i ran out already)
Thank you Craig for all the LED help!
