Default Specific LED Lighting Questions

-Does anyone know of a turn signal switch backbulb for the front lights?
That is bright white and then orange when you use the turn signals

-What about a bright white LED for the sun visors where can that be had?

-Also looking for a good set of High beam bulbs that are bright white like 6000k hids would be but not to break the bank like some 70 dollar PIAAs

-Did anyone have a hard time keeping in the small bulbs for the footwell, and glovebox? I have to silicone mine in to stay.

-How hard is it to change out the ignition and ashtray leds, do I need to take panels out in both cases? Im guessing so

Thanks if you can help with any of these.

Hey,

I have PIAA's.. for some reason the Sylvania Silverstars are brighter. You might as well get an HID kit for about $60 shipped. Use the search button, i think there's a special CL member group buy going on or something.

Nope, my footwell and glovebox lights fit snugly and doesn't come out.. it's really sad you used silicone for something like that..

you probably dont want hids for high beams as they take a while to warm up and when you hit the highs there wouldnt be any light output for a bit

the bulbs just wouldnt stay in place so I had to

HID's work great in the highs. Had mine in for 5 years.

They put out more light than the stock bulb initially and are way brighter in one second when they're fully warm.

I believe autolumination has switch back turn signals. You can also checkout V-LEDs.
