Hi Everyone,

Did what most, if not all Coupe owners have been doing, changing out those hideous Halogen bulbs inside the car for LED or HID Xenon bulbs.....did the maplights and door lights......SOOOOOOO much better looking! FO SHO

Just for your information, xenon lights are a gas. Now that you know what xenon is, are your lights xenon?

You peeps are a trip! Had I known my sh*t was gonna be jumped about the lights, I would have saved the the top part of the pack that says XENON. I don't claim to be a light specialist, I just know how to read.

And if you can tell LEDs from Xenon from my Blackberry camera phone, well, I'd say that was pretty good.......but ya can't.

No website, went out and picked them up at Autozone today. For you naysayers, I'll go out tomorrow and pick up another pack and post it.

Having said that, I will repeat, I'm not a light specialist, I bought some Pilot mini bulbs, 194 and @ the top of the pack said "Xenon".........and those that want to continue to argue the point, I give up.....I was just trying to show my stuff but have never had to go through this!

"PROVE THAT THOSE ARE XENONS OR WE WILL BANISH YOU FOR ALL TIME" (or just jump ur sh*t)Geeze!

Sorry if I came across as offensive, but it's just that xenon's aren't really used in interior lighting because of their natural properties. All I wanted you to know, so you don't sound like the famous guy from youtube with the "rotary mustang", is that your interior lights aren't really xenon lights

just one example of xenon 194 wedge bulbs... I agree with dflame, you folks are a trip... nothing worse than trying to make someone else look dumb, and you come out looking like the A$$!!!!!

they sell xenon white bulbs in discount auto mart and autozone for god's sake....

It looks pretty good, are your map lights blue or white. They look as though they have a blueish tint, might just be the camera because my blue lights look purple in pictures

OK.....payback time.......to the haters, headhunt3r and soxypoo, this is for you!



To the other person who said I shouldn't get bent over comments, to you I say I just don't like being called a liar and that's what this was about.

To rjdmmfl1, thanks for having my back.....you are awesome.

I really enjoy this forum and most peeps have been great. I don't even mind comments (if asked for, negative or positive) but to tell someone they don't know what they are talking about when they are just trying to share is just fu*ked up, imo and made me fell pretty crappy. However, being right ALWAYS helps.

They are white, although the ones in the door seem to give off more of a blue tint in person.....the camera made the blue come out...

Thanks for the luv, BLKmomba1 No colors, just the white, but what's cool is that they have a warranty! I thought that was kinda crazy for just some mini bulbs but hey, Pilot's ok in my book!
