Thumbs up LED's all around installed

Finally got some pictures of my LED's I got installed. I did the map lights, rear dome light, 3rd brake light, plate lights, & the puddle lamps. I am still thinking about doing the reverse lights too.


I got everything but the puddle lamps from here
eBay Store: Search results for LED.

And my puddle lamps from here.
2x 31mm 12 SMD LED Interior Festoon Bulbs Xenon white - eBay (item 320349731188 end time May-12-09 16:55:14 PDT)


These ones did require me to take the reflectors out of the housing, other wise they fit prefect.

Pics are crap but the best I could do with my great knowledge of camera's.


They are very cool looking, the plate lights going down the road at night look it would be a Lexus/bmw!

They are also super easy to do as you just have to replace the bulb. The only hard ones are the puddle lamps as the light is sealed behind the lens and you have to cut it off to get to the bulb. But with the help of another thread I got them off no problem and did not break the tabs.

can you tell me how to get those map lights out I have looked and looked just can't figure it out. It's probably really simple.

would you recommend the reverse lights if i have 20% tint on the back glass. At night time the stock lights are not really that bright.

Like, SCRWDRVR said just get a good hold on it and pull down. It sounds like you are going to break it but you won't.

Yes I would do them. I also have Aux. backup light installed so that already helps me out with seeing back there.
