Moslof - when you get to the backup lights, use V-leds #921_14_HP_W and light up the parking lot.

THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH AND YES I'M SCREAMING HAPPY. My car looks awesome and now the wife wants to hook up her FX 35 the same way. I went with everything u did and it looks great. except the dome light i didn't have to spice and dice (Thank GOD). i was able to find a conversion kit that fitted into this crappy dome light fixture. It cost A pretty penny.
thanks again.

There is a new fog light bulb vleds is offering. Its supposed to be twice as bright as the one some on here bought. Anyone buy these and put them in their fogs? I know they aren't HID's but just wanted to get some idea of how much brighter they were then the 68 LED. Here it isH11_28_W

I did try the 68-LED fogs and while they looked good, my headlights are not HID so it didn't quite look right. I decided to search for a more powerful halogen. I haven't gotten around to it yet.I will say, however, that these "HI-POWER" LED's (that this new 28-LED uses) are outstanding! The hi-power leds in my backup lights are simply awesome! Post a pic if anyone decides to try the 28-led fogs. Keep contributing to the thread!

I bought the 28-led as well as the driving light, back up lights, and all interior lights. I'll take some pictures whenever they come in and get installed.

Has anyone tried these for backup light? http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior....html These are similar to the 14 LED that's on this thread, but has 5 more radially firing 1/2 watt LEDs. Do you think there will be a heat issue?

They say this one is new with 19 high-powered LEDs, 5 more than the 14. Do you think it will be too bright?

Hey, pang, I was WRONG! I didn't read your post close enough.I used and pictured the 5 watt 14-LED. I can tell you that even the 14's I have light the way really well. However, these 8-watt 19-LED lights look AWESOME! I may order some and try them. You want to watch that the length of these aren't too long. The 14's I have seemed to fit with room to spare.

I ordered a set of the 8-watt 19-LED high power ones. I'll post findings once I install them.

Sorry to ask again...but doesn't seem like it ever got answered. Most of this "upgrade/replacement" is plug & play correct? Just noticed one of my tag lights is out. Wouldn't mine doing the reverse lights and tag lights.

I just put in the new 28 LED Fog light. It looks very bright but doesn't give out alot of light output. Looks good though

Is the output better then the OEM bulbs though? I can barley even notice any difference when they are on. Do the LEDs make any improvement in that area? Any pics?

Honestly I don't think they are any better. I'll try to take some pics tonight or tomorrow. I just didn't like the yellow look that came from the fogs. I may end up doing HID fogs down the road.

Dude. i did the same w/ the LED fog light and the light output is worse. I think they seem to point very high or something. They r mostly just to make the car look better than they did with those dingy yellow lights. May upgrade myself to HID conversion for the fog lights . I did it for my old Camry head lights n it was sick. But then again i'm not happy with the HID headlights n i'm trying to change those to a better brighter white like the damn Lexus.

RSG123:
Hi. I am doing the whole conversion of the inside. I am doing what you suggested via Ebay with 24 led in the front. However the back dome lights ones I ordered 18-led. Will those fit? I have read here that someone placed a 16led.
Thanks

I can't believe how bright those lights are. One of these I'll get around to doing mine.

Will the dome light leds fadeout when the door is shut or will they just go out?
