When opening and shttting the doors, do the LED dome and door lights dim off just as they would stock?

Yeah they dim on and off just like stock, looks pretty cool.
 
I did the same LEDs about a month ago but forgot to change out the visor mirror light.

Thanks for showing me up once again Fo_sheezy!

I will post some pictures of my LEDs soon.

I had to do some experimenting with the different bulbs. There is definite difference between the many options. Some are too bright and some too dim for the different locations. I get compliments on the running board lights all of the time as they are pretty easy to see the difference from FAR away

That's awesome man, definitely post some pics!
 
Came back from dinner, parked on campus, and noticed one tag light was out. I just ordered the LED pair. This will be my first LED upgrade, and I can't wait!

That's awesome, don't stop there. Upgrade all your lighting to LED, trust me it's worth it.
 
FoSheezy, so how many 194's are there total in the Runner, 6?

Also, how tough is it replacing the map lights and the doors?

That's correct, it's very easy took a total of about 3 minutes.
 
Fo-Sheezy - I replaced the rear lic. plate with LED's. I used SUPER WHITE but I think they're too bright. I think they had 5 small LED's on the 1 bulb.

I just ordered single LED's to see if that helps. What color did you use? I noticed they are nice and white and dont have any blue tint(which i hate)

Thanks
 
Great, should be interesting to see if they are too bright or not.



These are the ones I bought word for word for the license plate:

- 2 HID WHITE HIGH POWER LICENSE PLATE LED BULBS 194 168 158

Are these the (6) you purchased as well Fo_Sheezy?

I went with these right here, and there's no blue tint at all: http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/vpid/4481133/vpcsid/0/SFV/32481

I just ordered myself some LEDs for the interior and plates.

I ordered 3 sets of the same 194's that the OP used for the plate and doors and then I ordered this set of 194's for the map lights because I think they will be brighter.

If they are too bright I'll send them back and get another set of the others and probably get my glovebox and vanity light at the same time.

I found a 15% off coupon so shipping is basically free. :)

I also ordered the 5"x1.5" thin LEDs from Oz. I like how that fills out the housing better than all the other options.

are the DE3175 dome lights for an 05 the same size as yours... (5.0" x 1.5")?????

I don't think the physical light fixture has changed at all over the years. The lights are bigger than 5 x 1.5, but usable space to mount the lights is about 5.5 x 1.75, IIRC.

As for the bulbs 3175's are only 31mm long. The LEDs are flat panels that come with adapters that will fit a variety of sockets.
