Thanks.
You're right. That's the only areas where de3175 fits without modification.

So I pulled and looked at all the interior lights, the Dome and Hatch lights are DE3175, now the map lights are a wedge style bulb like this one.

I still have not been able to ID the bulb for the map light, I called Nissan and they gave me there part number, but I can't cross reference there number with an aftermarket number, Nissan part number is 26282JK00a 12v 8w(don't even know if this is right because this bulb is not DE3175).

Has anybody got the right bulb number???????

Thanks.

So I have bought LEDs for the map light and licnce plate which is a T10/194 like this:

Also bought DE3175 for the dome and trunk which I am still waiting on, now to tell you the truth these lights T10 are not really that bright, the yellow ones that came with the car is brighter(i think). I will have them on for a bit to see if I want to go back to the original ones kind of sad I thought these were going to knock me out bright and hope the DE3175 is going to knock me out bright.

On the "bright side" the license plate looks great, now I have to install the long strip light which on my mustang is knock out bright.

Orijin,

Did you use load resistors on your turn signals? If not how did you keep them from hyper flashing?

Thanks,
Eric

I actually took my LED turn signals off recently, there was something about the LEDs were causing strain to my BCM according to the nissan dealership when i bought it in the my fuel gauge fix.

They were hyperflashing, and I just didnt feel like splicing or tapping into the light system of my nissan rogue. I wish there was an amp or fuse to fix the hyperflashing like other car companies but unfortunately for nissan they do not have any of it for them.

Ill just stick to the interior leds from now on, there was also a problem where when i applied the brakes during the day time my front flashers will go on, i really did not know the reason for that but it was caused from having the LED flashers in the front.

I still have the HID kit though and that doesn't seem to cause any problems. I recommend using oem lights as flashers, if you do not want to use the load resistors because it would seem it would damage the system's BCM eventually and will be a 2-3k repair at the dealership. Hope that helps.

And Jerry98vert, i know ebay lights are cheaper believe me i had them too and they will never be as bright as if you were to get some from v-leds (i do not work for them, nor get referral credit), i absolutely recommend leds from them although my license plate light one of the leds has gone out after a year, every other led light has been 100% fine though exception for that one bulb. They usually have 10-20% off coupon codes occasionally, just have to google it and they have a fanpage on facebook so you can know when the sales are, they had the HID light systems for sale for $65 at one point, and that is the same HID system I have been using since september 2008.

Orijin, I have taken out all my interior LEDs from ebay they just sucked, also the Map light LEDs (I have the moonroof) slightly stayed on you could see they didn't shut off completely, I have read that you need a resistor because the LEDs have such little current that they don't shut off all the way.

I don't know if I want to spend more money on LEDs are you sure the v-leds are brighter then the original blubs?
