and still awaiting some help on finding a white bulb for the visor light =)

any ideas?

Pure

I went ahead with superbrightleds.com and got the WLEDx6. Alot of people go with VLEDS but i started with superbrightleds.com and wanted to continue a uniform look. I provided the link below..... I liked how they turned out, especially for the price...

the tiny light in the visor isnt a 194 bulb though, its a much small bulb which is why i have no idea what the replacement for it is.

and thanks!

Pure

I have found limited choices in this bulb. I asked all over and could never get an answer. I finally found one on the superbrightled site, but I think it was only blue. I wrote to V-LEDS with the dimensions of the bulb and they said they would be making some in HID white and UV soon.

Just checked and they now have HID white and blue.

Clickys....

White

Blue

Took me forever to find some answers, so I hope this helps!

okay visor led bulbs came in already, just installed them right now.

i went with the white led visor bulbs. one thing i noticed, the new led bulb IS larger (in width) than the bulb in there. there are two plastic clips that do nothing on both sides of the area where the bulb goes. i simply broke off one of the clips (the left one on each visor) by bending the clip up and down til it snapped off and then i slipped the bulb in with no problem.

the bulbs look great. odd that the size wasnt exact but they fit with a little adjustment and work perfectly. ill take pictures tonight and ill explain in more detail how they didnt fit at first!

Pure

Nice Job Konig... thank you for the update. Looks like I will have to follow suite for sure... It's one of those things where we make minor mods in order for things to work, but I bet they look amazing with your set up...

I am slacking on pictures, but I need a new camera so hopefully soon ill get them all up...

just installed new interior VLEDs. Changed from red to white. I used the 5 SMT bulbs for the map lights and courtesies as well as the liscense plate, and what a difference! I had to buy a High Flux Festoon due to the fact that they were sold out of the SMT Festoons in white. Turned out great though! I'll Try to get some pics up soon...

yes, now im really gonna have to order some of these LED's since i am getting ready for some footwell LED's. that would look awsome!!!

smokedRX8

got some pics of the whites in...
the pictures don't do them justice, but you get the general idea.

Strange that it didn't fit. My bulbs with, It just took the right amount of wiggle, pressure and angle. Anyway, glad they are working for you. I am finishing my LED conversion today, just have to wire the resistors in place and find a good way to mount them. I will also take some pictures later on, I went with a completely different color selection, and have not seen it anywhere else yet.

I was putting in some Super-bright Red LEDs in the courtesy light spot on my driver side and passenger side door, but the socket for the light popped in to the door on the driver side some how.. Is there any way to reach this thing and pull it back through without taking the door siding entirely off? I tried doing it with a screwdriver / pliers and tweezers to pinch it together so it would fit back through, but about 45 minutes of no luck with that method I gave it up and now don't have a driver side coutesy light.. Meh. Any ideas? or should I just take the whole door panel off? Thanks

Mazurfer

Door panel isn't too bad.
You might be able to just pop the bottom(and end) loose enough to get your hand/arm up there to ease getting the socket back in place. Will be a tough call depending on how big your forearms are, but you don't have a long way to go. If you do this...............just becareful how much you bend it to get your arm in there.
I do have a PDF file used to install something else but it has instructions on side panel removal(with pics), so if you want that.............PM me with your E-mail address and I'll send them to you.

my courtesy lights and dome lights came from rx8strakes.com. they are a bit low on power but still good. i like.

Is there suppose to be a light in the glove box? I opened mine and there was no light, maybe it blew out?

Mazurfer

Like my PM said, your lights must be on, but you should have one.........if in the US. I think all models had one..........what year is your car and model????

i hate the door lights. i've seen them pop inside the door on several cars while trying to put a new bulb in. then when you take the door panel off those white clips always break apart. very crappy design flaw or something.

Mazurfer

Yeah, I'm always careful when putting in those bulbs, so the socket doesn't fall inside the panel.
When I have taken the panel off, my white clips would come loose but not break, then I'd just have to put them back in the little slots that they slide or sit in before attempting to put the panel back on.
