Hey, sorry I'm so late to this thread, but I do have a couple of questions.
1) How did you manage to fit these huge "start" bulbs into your housing?
2) Wouldn't it be a better idea to get white leds for brakes, since they are brighter? Since the brake housing is red anyways, the light output would've still been red, but much brighter?

2)no, the whites will shine a white off the red making a pinkish color....plus the red LED is gonna be bright also

well i finished ordering ALL my interior lights even some more than jackson did. i did it in 4 orders covering EVERY interior bulb including rear door ashtrays, ashtray up front and some more! spent 423.57 total but i saved 68.85 with the clublex discount code. just ordered last ones today. AND A REMINDER the 2001+ reverse light is a 921 bulb which is only difference from jackson's 98-2000 model but thanks again jackson for posting/making this and giving me the motivation to do this. only thing different im chaning out my city leds for the ones i got from warren off ebay as they seem to match but OMFG my car is bright now

Looking good. So 194 is the LED part number for the front "city" lights? I just installed my HID kit but now my daytime running lights look very dim in comparison and I want to replace them.

anyway you can update a list of all the lights you bought? seems like some of the original poster's are out of date. i also noticed that the trunk light is sold out?
