Are you sure you don't want just a cool white (white with a slight hint of blue) instead of those full-on blue bulbs? I'm sure you'll get tired of them after a while.

Blue bulbs are for ricers. Go with white like the newer Lexus cars.

i would surely use superbrightleds.com. Thats where i got all my bulbs and they are awesomely bright. I got all super whites, which are a cool white bulb(hint of blue). Super white is the way to go! Plus they have the Micro chip lights where have more output than your standard led.(this is what i have installed) ill post back with some more suggestions once i find out what size lights you need.

There is also a site called autolumination.com. Pretty sure that site is more expensive than superbrightleds.com but has most of those exotic bulbs sizes that you cant just find anywhere .

Okay, did some research. Your Dome Lights and your Map Lights are a DE3175. Superbrightleds.com doesnt make exactly a DE3175, their led replica is called a Festoon bulb...its a tube like bulb that connects to the power leads on each side of the bulb itself. Superbrightleds.com makes them in different lengths and sizes, so what you need to do is remove the existing light(s) from your car and measure them in millimeters to find out which one(s) is correct for you.

Here is the link for superbrightleds.com so you get an idea for what your looking at(scroll down, they are about half way down the page)...

They range anywhere from 1.99per light to 7.99 per light. If possible, you want to get the "Chip led"bulb with the most amount of chips on it that your car will allow. in some cases they wont have the right size "Chip led bulb" for your car, then you just have to get as many standard leds on a festoon bulb as possible. The reason for doing this is just the chips are better technology and much brighter. Your going to need 3 of these total and they may vary from map to dome so make sure you check them all.

Okay, as for the door lights or "step/courtesy lights" as the sylvania fit guide calls them...they are a 194 bulb as someone stated above. these lights are easy!!!! the bulbs you want for these can be found on the same link as above(you might have to go back to page one though) and they are called the WLED-WHP Pure White High Power. These bulbs are 4.95ea and are tha shiznit, this is what i have installed in my car. They are worth it! Your going to need 4 of these(two front doors, two back doors and they are all usually the same)

Good luck with your led convo! and PM if you have any other questions. I can also help out with your taillights, running lights, and reverse lights too!

honestly im not good with volts and all this stuff. can someone find me white lights that i would be able to use for this inside of my car. i want to replace all my inside lights with new ones. not the dashboard or anything just the normal inside lights.

I personally wouldn't opt for blue. Its weaker and its harder to see when you need it at night.

White or Oem yellow is best. LED is better if you wanna go with that route.

ns3425

what kind of bulb do i need for my doors? when u open the door there is the little light in the corner of the door. what size or what bu,b do i need for that. i wanna put blue ones there.

JSM1284

I believe those should be 194 bulbs. Dont quote me on that though.
