Thumbs up Interior White LED lights

Yesterday I installed white LED's on all the interior lights and my license plate ligths, and it looks great. It does look white and NOT blue.
A very inexpensive and easy upgrade. If you are contemplating in doing it, It is worth it.

Where did you guys buy your lights? The guy on ebay is really shaddy (as he is charging $30 US for shipping to Canada, even though his listing stated $16 to Canada. He refused to repond to me, so I refused to pay him for the purchase.

Anyone else on ebay that you bought from? If so, please share the link.

Are these lights:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Lot-of-10-194-168-158-White-High-Power-LED-Lights-Bulbs_W0QQitemZ150114569572QQihZ005QQcategoryZ33713QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
The same as these lights:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/10-Bulb-High-Power-HID-S-White-T10-194-168-Led-Light_W0QQitemZ190106036560QQihZ009QQcategoryZ33713QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
The first link will cost me $60 US (to Canada), while the second will only cost me $45 US. I'll save myself $15 if I order from the second guy, but I don't know if the bulbs are the same (as some below tell me there are really cheap/low quality lights being sold on e-bay).

Any advice from someone who has installed them?

I got them from ebay and I think I paid 38 including shipping (US only) but I ahve read that if you need to ship them internationally, it gets really expensive.
I do not have before or after pictures but someone else here does. Looking at these pictures made me decide to change the lights.
check the link:

This is the same guy I bought mine as "BUY IT NOW", except I never paid him. He's a real *****. His post says:

Canada (UPS/USPS):
Paypal: $26 (will ship by Express mail with tracking #)
Paypal: $16 (will ship by UPS Ground with tracking #)
Add $5.00 Shipping for additional item for Canada shipment.

but when I went to checkout, the shipping amount is pre-populated for $28 (and you can't change it). I e-mailed him about 6 times, and he never responded, so I never ended up paying him. Canadian buyers beware.

I think they look cool, but if the purpose is to illuminate the plate, stock is better imho. Transit vehicles here have led's on the plate and it looks artificial, not even lit as well for reading the plate.

Not quite sure why you're having this issue. I believe I purchased mine from ebay as well. Live in MD, spent roughly $38 (including shipping, which took exactly 7 days). Easy install as well.

According to Paypal, this guy received payment on April 19... but he claims he has not yet been paid and my order is still "Pending Payment".
I'll give him a few more days to get his act together, and then I'm gonna lose my patience.
So far, he has left me with a less than "warm and fuzzy" feeling.
Possibly a $40- lesson learned.

I too did not have a great experience w/ him. Seems like a shaddy seller. I want the bulbs, but don't want to deal w/ this guy. Any other suggestions?
