Visionbulbs sell standard white bulbs, not LEDs, they are not close to "bright"

interior LEDS do not require resistors but exterior LEDs do.

the cost of LED fog lights cost LESS than a set of Luminics Titanium White bulbs. (if you get PIAA TERA LED, it cost more!)

You should take a pic of a piece of piece of white paper with text on it to show us how "bright" it really is. I dunno, but this wouldnt seem "functional" but it does have cool factor :P

Hmm, i think the cluster would look kinda cool but it won't match the rest of the interior.
