LED lighting

[wyorunner]

so, no one has put the ozniums in the front map lights? would anyone be willing to measure those two, to see if they will fit?

 

[wyorunner]

has anybody used these in the dash:

or are they too big, which im assuming?

Even if they did fit, which I do not think they will, they would be way super bright and you would probably end up with some bright spots. Also, they may get too hot for use in gauges.

 

[wyorunner]

didnt think about the heat issue. i found some 6 led on autolumination.com that looked like they would work pretty good. dont know which ones off the top of my head but ill post it when i find em again.

 

[sn0wrunner]

I agree with james... You dont want some areas to be way brighter than others.

 

[jamess]

I used these. I think they are what snorunner used.

194 168 W5W 2825 SMT Tower

They are plenty bright and the light is very evenly spread out. There are no "hot spots" to speak of.

speaking of the HVAC controls, anyone know what bulbs go in there?

 

[wyorunner]

Damn dude it looks good, I'm impressed! I thought about doing white on my 02, but didn't... I've got some plans for my 08 interior lighting and white is definitely the chosen color.

 

[wyorunner]

well now i have to go buy my all my lights. i really like how it looks. nice job move120. going to buy lights at lunch or possibly after work.

Just how my truck looks.
MY DIGICamera SUX!!!

That looks sooo good.

Oh and I should I have listened and gotten the HI-Powered festoon 31mm DOME light.

it is nice and COOL white but not BRIGHT light you would expect.

OTHER THAN THAT, I am 100% pleased

Looks great!

What were the LEDs used for the footwells and what was the process in having them function?

I have a 1996 and just finished installing my LEDs, but noticed that my gauge lighting is demonstrating some spots where the LED light spread is not equally dispersed. What may be the problem?

I also could not remove the cigarette lighter bulb; it seems to be embedded within.

 

[Fo_SheeZy]

You have to break the cigarette lighter bulb in order to replace it w/ an LED. To make the LED fit I had to widen the outer edges of the socket with tweezers.

Nice find man. I always wondered why they didn't have common bulbs.
