The lights on the door, map light, trunk, license plate are all 168/194's. The dome light you'll want to take out and measure.

I spent a ton over at autolumination.com. My Millenia lights up like a xmas tree. My HB is coming along shortly, I don't like or use cheap LEDs.

I did the superbrightleds.com website. Tip though, use the 921 for the reverse lights in the front for the map lights ( VERY BRIGHT) and if u use one for reverse lights spend the extra $ on the luxeon LEDs they offer, the standard reverse lights with 14 leds are worthless for anything backing up.

i am a vent LED master. Oznium.com is a great site and i have tried to match the quality LEDs they carry with other sites for like 4 years and have been unsucessful. There are a couple ways you can mount leds in the vents but a good and common way is to forcefit the LED into a drilled hole. So fit a drill bit a lil smaller then the led and make sure u silicone the top of it so you dont get any shorts and what not.

the hookup is very easy as well. Always, always, always, run new power wires unless u have to tap into your cars pre-existing wiring for a certain application. U need to drill a small hole through your firewall and run the power the wire. You should run both the pos and neg wire from the battery to your accessory. Make sure you put a fuse on the wire so you dont burn the LEDs out. Also, make sure that run the LEDs in series so that it hits about 12-13 volts, IE red leds are like 2 v so wire up 6 or 7 in a row. Run them to a switch located at your convenience and you shoud be good to go. LED's can be messy because the leads are fragile and when connected to wires promote a lot of movement and can break which suxors.

If you have any other questions, i have done this type of work before so hit me up on AIM - SuBZeRo69069
