sure - just grabbed these 5k whites - $19.99 + ship i just searched the threads for installation instructions. basically you just tilt the mirror (there are 4 screws behind the mirror holding the housing on) remove the housing, replace bulb, and fit back together. much easier said than done, but that's the general idea.

Took me about the same amount of time....for the passenger side.

I started with the driver side and it took me FOREVER to muster the cajones to pop the mirrors out. I first tried fiddling with mirror adjustment and unscrewing for half an hour unsuccessfully.

They look good MarkoJames!

Yeah you can't go wrong with Vleds. I jut replaced my dome light and there bright as you know. My friend instantly said something as soon as he got in the car. Lol. Don't stare at them and you'll be fine.

I have these LEDs. Very nice but you will lose fade in fade out because of led. Old bulbs looked nice when lights fade out.

They still fade in and out, it's just a little choppy when you look close.
