LED replacement Lights

looks great!!

just finished installing this mod and i couldnt be happier!! so easy and looks so good!! i used all bright white and they are definately brighter than the stock lights.. highly recommend!!! only took 2 days for the bulbs to arrive too..
 
This mod is something that i think I might try shortly. It's just tough to drop over $50 on LED bulbs :( I want to be sure I purchase all the bulbs at one time to save on shipping. I might want to change out the brake light bulbs with LED bulbs also.

Probably more that you are looking to spend, but you might consider changing your '05 OEM tail lights for '06 OEM tailights which are LED. They are amazingly bright and one of the best upgrades I have made yet.
 
Finished conversion. Got my lights from superbrightled.com

Door and Map lights used: WLED-x6 LED bulb (194/168 type) 4 Blue ones total on doors, 2 cool white for map lights

License plate light: WLED-x6 LED bulb (194/168 type) 2 warm white ones total

Dome Lights: 3022-x9 LED Festoon bulb. Blue. 3 total (2 for front dome and 1 in rear)

Anyone have tips for getting out the glovebox light? Anyone think that the 5xLED "whip" light (multidirectional) is better for the maplight because of the reflector? Thanks.

Thanks. Im thinkin red might be pretty sweet too. What bulbs did you use for the map lights? Did you do the glovebox?
 
I never did the glove box, and the map lights I put white LEDs in so that I have good lighting if I need to read something.
 
Does anyone know what size LED's are used to replace the bulbs behind the AC LCD screen? Ive searched and only found a couple "after the fact" without any information as to process/materials. Id like to put in blue lights to match my interior lights and aftermarket HU. Thanks.
 
I don't think there is a specific size. They aren't the type you can just unplug and replace, otherwise everyone would have done it already. They have to be soldered.
 
Hey guys, how are those LED bulbs holding up?

I was thinking about adding them to mine, not sure yet...

was also wondering if anyone knows how or if it was possible to place an LED bulb in the rear high mounted stop light?

Thanks...

LEDs will last longer than regular filament bulbs. Do you have a rear spoiler? The third brakelight on the spoiler is already LEDs. If you don't have a spoiler, you might probably want the LED lights that are arranged in different directions. The ones with all the LEDs on the top, the light tends to project forward and doesn't diffuse very well in the housing. I have LEDs in on my running boards and beam pattern is quite different than bulbs, more like a flash light than a flood light.

No rear spoiler here... I don't think its really functional... its looks cool, but just looks cool... I don't mind using the wiper... its an SUV....
 
I did all the LED mods. Used the 4-led ones and they really light up the place.

By the way the headlights also have a 194 wedge that can also be changed. I changed mine to hyper white just like all the rest and I also changed the windshield washer nozzles on the hood to hyper white. Looks very good. I'll also be installing LED dual halo projector headlights with eyebrows and a couple of HID kits & I picked up a pair of PIAA 5261 Ion Crystal chrome fog lights to put on the Bull bar. I'll try to post some pics when all is said & done. Also changing the turn signals to hyper white.
 
Yes i'm going for the chrome look so I had some chrome LED hyper white windshield washer nozzles that I had for my Celica & threw them on the truck. I know it's a bit played out but it looks pretty good with what I'm trying to go for. Bunch of chrome, hyper white & some black.

:worthless

Please take pics sooner than when your mods are completed... I wanna see..... :awais: I wanna see... :biggrin2:
 
Just replaced mine...they are a nice clean light...but I felt that stock was brighter. Heinous and disgusting...but brighter. I used the 9led for the dome and 5led for everything else.
