i put some led's on my license plate and map light. got blue ones on the plates by accident. might change them to white...not sure yet. heres some pics. sorry for quality. took with my phone. oh and is there any legal issues with what colors you use on the plates?

[ChiLLaXtodaMaX]

I'm pretty sure you can't use BLUE for the plate lights...

[ja105ny]

haha the leds look mad good ja105ny, what type of rims are those? they lookin good too lolcan i just have your car?

[ja105ny]

lol. thnx. i decided to keep the blue on unless i get stopped. then ill take em off. lol. and i went ahead and replaced all interior bulbs with red.

the rims are 19" Venti V59s

Yeah those blues are definantly illegal, taking them off when you get pulled over is fine I guess, I just hope you don't get an a**hole officer. Some of the guys I work with hate those things because some people like to freak people out with strobes in their grills and such, so they assume ALL mods like that mean that's what you're doing.

[ja105ny]

yea. i think ill try finding the super bright white ones then. ill head to pep boys tomorow.

I tried doing this yesterday. You have to pull out the glove box assembly from the dash. It's held in by 8 screws but it is a tight squeeze to fit under the dash to get to the lower screws. Anyhow the bulb is a super small size and not like any of the other bulbs on the car. I haven't found a compatible LED for it yet. Don't bother with it until someone finds a 658 compatible LED bulb. The glove box bulb is the only bulb I haven't switched over to LED yet (besides the turn signals and headlights, which I don't intend to replace).

well thanks for the heads up. i was about to do that today.

how did u change the liscnce plate led? i been lookin everywhere all i could find was the full out the carpeting on the truck and i can access it? all i could acess was the wire though

Pop trunk, take out 2 big rubber nubs from the lid.. then take off some of the plastic push screws, you will see the harness, twist it n take it out..

Pep boys leds are garbage, get good ones online for cheaper.

Also leaving those blue license lights is just ASKING for an issue and i wouldnt drive with them at all.

To answer your question about light color for the plate light, most states require you to have a white light illuminating the license plate. A rule of thumb when doing aftermarket lighting (neon lighting or changing bulb colors) is that you want to avoid the colors of traffic lights, and depending on the state you are in the lights that police/fire use. In Indiana only police/fire can have red or blue lights on their cars. There are restrictions on green lights also.

where did you get the HID red for the interior and how did you do it?can you also tell the bulb sizes for each light?
