i get the front domes and the rear domes, but what do u mean by "1 pack for doors?" i only have 4 lights in the interior cabin.. i'll get one for the license plate light and prob the trunk interior..

so the backup light needs a diff style bulb? 921s?

installed them yesterday.. did all the interior lights in about 20 min during my lunch break. was about to try the trunk when it started raining. got home later that night and did the license plate lights.. took a bit longer cause it was dark. the left light was relatively easy but the right one took a bit longer cause the wire was significantly shorter and it was almost impossible to twist the bulb housing out of the light casing.. but after a bunch of fiddling around, finally got it to work. total time for everything was about 45min-1hr. cost for 5 pairs of bulbs was $40 incl shipping from v-leds.com.

looks SO CLEAN inside and out.. debating whether or not to use my last pair of LEDs for the vanity mirror lights or the trunk..

Vanity mirrors is a different size bulb. Trunk it is, or maybe parking lights!

Do the interior LED's brighten up the interior of the car more?

which style did you use.. there are so many different ones it get a tad bit confusing.. and what would you suggest for the parking lights so that they match the stock HID

i was expecting it to, but it was about more or less the same.. i'm sure it depends on the bulb you buy as well.. mine we're the cheap ones ($7.99/pair) so with more expensive ones, who knows. the light is cleaner and whiter, but it doesn't illuminate the whole cabin like i thought it would.

i have no issues with that though.. it makes your interior a little less conspicuous from the outside..

these are the ones i bought. idk how they'll work out for parking lights though, i used mine for interior and license plate lights..
