interior light bulbs

[imdavit]

could we get these at auto shops ( autozone, pepboys, struass, etc etc ) ?

or specific places like 212 motoring

and if anyone knows where i can order these online it would also be greatly appreciated.

I suggest you get LEDs bulbs from superbrightleds.com or v-leds.com (I have a 10% discount code for them). I get my LEDs bulbs personally from a supplier in Hong Kong on ebay. Downside is that, shipping takes days but it is much cheaper.

[imdavit]

led lights you are talking about are map lights and license plate lights etc? i wanna change up all the lights to some better color

[phobs]

of course, what color are you planning to do?

[imdavit]

whats a nice a color? im leaning towards blue what u think? and could u link me cuz im lost on that site

the superbrightled.com one

noob alert

edit: so do they sell it at the auto shops ? cuz if they do i rather get em from there and return em if i dont like it. if i can do that ya dig

[phobs]

I personally like white, yellow, or amber. Auto shops should have blue and red incandescent ones and maybe some amber ones. For bulb reference if you did not know yet:

Map lights: two 194 bulbsDome light: one festoon 3022 bulbDoor step light: two 194 bulbsLicense plate: two 194 bulbs

[imdavit]

anyone bought from this site and could recommend me bright ones that last long, cuz i dont really understand this lighting business.

edit : vleds so much better lol more organized so i think ima get from them.

http://www.superbrightleds.com...xt=50 is the site for superbrightleds, not hard from there. I bought from there, you'll want more than 4x leds for the interior, i bought those and found they're not bright enough and have since ordered another set of the WLED-xHP6 Wedge Base Bulbs (blue). Also get more than single bulb for the license plate, 4x should be enough but that's up to you. Can't say how long they'll last though, i've only had em for about a month.

Just go to pep boyz and buy the OEM package it comwes with all the lights you need but the license plates

[imdavit]

anyone know how to change the license plate led lights? dont think its in the manual and also the map lights too what did u guys use to take em off cuz i had a hard time with map lights. the screwdriver was kinda too thick for it with a cloth. anyone use something else?

[phobs]

To change the license plate bulbs you gotta partially remove the trunk liner behind the license plate. Removing the rubber stoppers and fasteners are easy.

[lvnitup00]

mind posting pics when you're done?im considering doing this as well.

what color did u decide to go with?

[imdavit]

bluee, it was either that or red cuz blue is pretty common but red with silver is kinda weird imo. i could be wrong cuz i never actually saw it but eh blue with silver sounds better.

[surmanm]

come to the bk meet next week imdavit i will help you put in all our lights.. 212 motoring is way overpriced

[lvnitup00]

sounds pretty nice.u should look at

http://forums.altimas.org/zero...iller

that will look really good with ur blue lights

[08coupedriver]

these are mine

[lvnitup00]

is it just me or is the back one brighter?maybe its the camera?

[alphapig]

is it just me or is the back one brighter?maybe its the camera?

The back one has a different sort of plastic covering the bulb; it's completely clear.

The front two have a whitish tint, and are not as clear, so yes, they would look more dim than the back one.

[Blackmobile]

I'm pretty sure the front map lights are white and his dome light is blue.

[lvnitup00]

i think so too, because comparing to yours they look "white-er"

where did you get your bulbs at?

[Blackmobile]

I got mine at superbrightleds.com

I had 4x leds in the maps and a 4x 3022 in the dome. I replaced them with 6 directional leds in the maps:(WLED-xHP6 Wedge Base Bulb Miniature Wedge Base Bulb (194/168 type)with 6 High Power LEDs12 Volt AC/DC, 360 Viewing AngleSelect LED Color)

and a 9x 3022 in the dome... after putting the new ones in.. zero difference in brightness. The only good thing is that now my front maps don't have this bright "spot" it's not an even blue color which is nice.

superbrightleds.com is a decent site, way cheaper than vled for some reason and i havnt had any problems. I have a bunch of spares now though since i made two orders. anyone interested in buying some blue 4x194 and 4x3022 leds

has anyone changed the light on the sunshade thing?

[imdavit]

vanity lights? nah i want to though.

[Marisha]

has anyone changed the light on the sunshade thing?

AFAIK no one's been able to find a perfect fit yet. A few people on here got some bulbs that were too long and "got them to work". I got some that were too wide and also "got them to work".

[imdavit]

the vanity lights from vled.com dont fit?

[missmedude]

are u sure they fit?
