I have installed leds with no resistors and haven't had any problems. Bought mine from superbrightleds.com. Just cross reference your stock bulbs.

Did these have the problem of staying on while driving or not turning off when getting out of the car?

Also you have the front lights and the doors, but what about the rear passenger lights?...

yeah ur right, i can see that. i was just hoping that going to a dark color like that would lower the cars profile a bit. when those lights go on, everything inside is visible and it really makes the car stand out a little too much. i mean it looks great but its very "loud"

clkboi
yeah white is definitly more classy. nahh id keep it one color.

what color do you guys think is best? cool white or warm white

This is my "cool white" dome light. It has a bit of a light blue tint to it. You can't see it as much by itself but when it's on with the map lights like in the pic above you could notice the difference.

You could see a bit of light if you look down at the bottom of the door. But if you're not looking for it, you won't see it.


I'm took my bulb out of the rear. I keep saying I will get around to ordering one, but I never do. I never have anyone in my back seat anyways.
