my dome light burned out and i was just wondering if there were any direct led/hid replacements....

either a bright white or like a 8k blue

also looking to switch out the trunk light and license plate light with similar lights...

dome light isnt a 194 thou i dont think. i bought mine from vled on ebay. also regarding the license plate led you want something that fires down anything that only fires forward is no good. the led array would be best in the trunk. or one of the ones that fire in all directions if you want something a lil cheaper. it wont light up the trunk as well thou

I forgot about you non-sunroof people. I have 194's in my map lights and they work just fine but the dome might be different.
I also have the same bulbs in my licence plate lights and they work juast fine, match up nice in color to my 6000k HID's.

 

MY FIRST POST!!! I can't find where to make a thread of my own so this will have to do.

Someone I can't find anymore, put blue LED's in the radio control buttons on the steering wheel. I want a HOW-TO on this! Has anyone else done it?

 

sub'd

 

LEDs are all over the place, just pick a website.. LOL

HID would be a bit over the top, and youd have to put a ballast somewhere.

 

I have an LED dome light and it's awesome. You get much better visabiltiy and the bulb itself takes less power to light up. For the dome light make sure you get 561

edit: 561 not 562.

 

HID domelight would be absolutely ridiculous. I'd love to see it.

 

which ones did you get BTW? i had the one with the heat sink that literally only shoots one direction and that thing wouldn't work for **** anywhere, rear dome trunk or license plate nada. i ended up burning it out dissembling it anyway thou

ya **** that the leds are bright enough if you get the right ones

 

HID dome light.....be able to tan while parked at night

 

where'd you get yours? i could only find blue ones

 

hid dome light! haha i want hid reverse lights!

 

I got replacements that are just coated blue for white light. It looks better but it makes it a lot harder to see. I got the license plate one too and I even got pulled over by a cop cuz he thought the bulb was out.

 

x2... seriously thou i cant see the stock ones light up thru my tint. If anything i see the light on the inside so it makes it worse

 

hids need time to start up, so you would be burning out bulbs really fast in the reverse spot, what you really need is a high powered led, look into it, im talking about the ones that are 25 to 50 dollars a pair.

 

i would like to have a LED dome light and also the liscence plate light

 

ya but all the real big high powered LED's used as daytime running lamps are "advised" not to be used as night time lamps for their decreased actual output over incandesant

 

Are the reverse lights for lighting up the path as we go or more to just let others know that we are in reverse. If your windows are tinted than you can't see **** anyway.

BTW-Emp, I used 194 LED's without the metal heatsink, that had 3 LED's on the top of them, they were only $7-8 (Can) for a pair at a local automotive shop (Lordco)

 

id like to think both... the dealer added 35% i could see behind me. wow that was a while ago

**** in the ghetto over here theres not really much locally.

if you dont have a sunroof then you need 561 and 2 194's

 

These work really well in the mirror lights:

Don't get these:

I actually bought those for my Cobalt and they are 2.5mm thick, which makes it almost impossible to install. I had to grind down part of it to make it fit somewhat, but the 80 lumens made it worth it. The first LED I linked up there is slightly less bright (60 lumens), but fits perfectly in the 194 sockets and is significantly brighter than stock.

BTW I found two 15% codes for V-LEDs that may or may not work:
COMMANDER15
bt2580

Bottom line, ditch those dumb incandescent interior lights. The first time I opened the doors and the trunk, I thought GM saved some money by not installing lights. They were extremely dim inside my dark garage. With these new white LEDs, it looks like fluorescent lighting in an office environment.

 

Dose any one knownif this will work in a 08 ss wit the 2 lights in the review mirror? I realy want some blue leds if any one knows where to get some that would help a lot I got my plates light from eBay

 

the post right above u covers just that
