LED Lighting

[roushstage2]

Anyone added any to their cars? Here is one I just did with my truck. Lighting is a bit less, but I didn't originally buy this bulb for the truck either... It looks cool though!



I have added them to my cars license plate lights and in the trunk. The ones I bought for the inside of my car won't fit, so I have to wait to reorder new ones.

Here is the plate lights, might switch these out to a different style bulb.

Re: LED Lighting

Nice look! Where did you get the license plate lamps from?

Re: LED Lighting

I actually got those ones from a friend who sells them. They are like a 6 led bulb. They kind of look like this:
I ordered a bunch through www.autolumination.com. I have two of these single "spotlight" led bulbs I may put in there and see how they look.

Did the plate ones just plug right in?

Re: LED Lighting

Cool!

I hate yellow light. I always replace my apt/house lights with daylight bulbs. I would go LED in the house but that's too expensive now. I'll have to check out some LED bulbs for the Jeep now.

Yep. They are all direct replacements, as long as you get the right size. The only thing you have to check and that is because they don't come with the power wire on both sides on the bottom of the bulb (at least none that I have seen): so if you put them in and they don't light up, just flip them around 180 degrees.

I also put di-electric grease on the plate ones since the are on the exterior of the car.

I am not a fan of yellow light either. The color LEDs I got are the Super White. The only lights I am still on the fence about replacing are my reverse lights. I have heard the LEDs can be twice as bright.

That would be cool! I hate backing up at night, can't see a darn thing.

Re: LED Lighting

I really like them!

You just have to be careful where you install it, I say this because a friend of mine replaced this plate lights on a Scion tC and the light cover or what's in front of the light it's some kind of plastic and it melted, formed like to dents but they look good because looks uniform and you think it's a factory thing

I have 5% on my rear window, but I can see fine so I just don't see a need really for me to get them. You would want to get something like this:

Interesting because LEDs are cool to the touch. The regular bulbs get way hotter than them. Either way, I am totally hooked on the LED lighting now!

Maybe he didn't use LEDs, maybe he used a white color bulp?

Re: LED Lighting

There are some that look like LEDs (the white light anyways), but are way cheaper. That website I posted has them on there. They are called Krypton bulbs.
