To everyone else:

Red is bright enough to be usable but not so bright you see artifacts or wreck your night vision. great when someone drops something while driving and needs to use a light.

White is insanely bright. Not recommended to use while driving lol.

Yep, switchable red/white. The white is incendiary lol. I also have the arclight rear hatch lights that are switchable. Everything is red all the time unless something got dropped somewhere and then it's torch mode.

LED for interior is over rated

Although I did upgrade about 2 years ago and I didn't have any issues, if I had to do this again I would not do it. I think it's a bit over rated, it's just not important to me to have the brightest interior lighting and risk potential problems. I know many will say they didn't have any problems (same here).

People will learn one way or the other.

White LED is way too bright for map lights. So many reflections and artifacts if someone turns it on while driving (AKA..passenger) and blinds the shit out of you.

Red LED is a good compromise for map lights. It doesn't bother me at all when the passengers turn them on.

Soft white/OEM map light is probably perfect for most people. I'd still upgrade my dome light to LED though.

As for me, I had already gone down the white LED rabbit hole and wasn't happy with it. Saw a buddy with MESO's and was pretty happy with how the red LED's performed, so i went that route. So for me, it would be either stock/OEM or meso's, or one map light is red and one is white.

No power is unlikely. Make sure you press ON button on the Map lens and ignition is in ACC or ON position.
