Completely LED'ing Your Car
Well folks, my quest for a 100% LED'ed car is complete. The following info might be useful to you if you want to follow my route with ease:
The following can be found @ V-leds.com 2 Map Lights - 194 bulb 2 Courtesy/Step Lights (on front doors) - 194 2 Passenger Seat Lights - 194 2 License Plate Lights - 194 1 Trunk Light - 194 1 Glove Box Light - 74 bulb The following can be found @ autolumination.com 2 Vanity Mirror Lights - 31mm x 5mm (look under the title Vanity 3 Mini LED SMT Festoon) |
I did this within a few weeks of buying the car. The yellowish lighting had to go.
The white LEDs have held up to 2 years now and still look great. Great mod... not expensive and makes a drastic change for the better. :biggthumpup: |
yeah, i have no idea why i waited 1.5 years to do this. it looks soooo much better. if you guys are bored, you can go to my "garage" and take a look at what white LEDs will do for your car (which IMO does wonders)
|
I can't figure out why I haven't gotten around to this myself. I checked out your pics and was wondering exactly what type of 194 bulb did you use? There appears to be quite a few white type 194 bulbs available.

It's really nice, but you lose the fade effect when you unlock or close the door.

I used these for the map lights:
http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...68710-1-2.html I used these for the rest of the car (minus the license plate) http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/P...11110-1-2.html These were for the license plate: http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/C...81133-1-2.html and yes, Csquared, you are correct that you will lose the fading out of the lights, but it is something i am willing to live with. |

I don't think so you can get like a 12 led for the trunk but you close the dome. less than 12 and you'll see even less.
|
Hummm looks interesting, I might get around to doing this myself, do they deliver international? :biggthumpup:
|
give it a shot. it's always worth trying
