What he said. The Lights being replaced are Super white LEDs. A vendor on here, DIODEDYNAMICS specializes in these and sell you a set to replace all the lights in your car.

all the interior light covers just pop right off. get a small screwdriver or actual interior pull tool and they come right off. pull the bulb out and put in LED. test it before putting the cover back on, because they will go in either way but only work on one side.

superbrightleds.com has decent prices. you'll need 6 lights for the interior lights, 2 for the license plate, and 1 for the interior trunk. all the same 194 style bulb.

I've tried to pop the overhead interior light covers but the whole casing wants to come out. Is there a technique to get just the covers off?

Help!

I just swapped out the interior lights with blue LED's. Installed map lights first, door lights, and the lights in the rear. I noticed that the lights were getting dimmer as I was replacing the drunk light.
Now my car won't start and there was a clicking noise coming from the hood, but not from the starter.
Any ideas guys??
Thanks!

your car is rejecting the silly blue and requesting to go to just a normal white LED

I put blue led's in and get a TON of compliments. Spent $10 and 10 minutes and out of the thousands I have put into this car it is what people notice the most.
