Looks freekin' great.
HiLED's should just price out a Yaris package for all the lights. We should be getting a discount if we're dropping $100+ on light bulbs no matter what month it is or what sale they're running.
Just an idea.

It doesn't appear any brighter, just a nice pure white.
Am I right?

Nice, looks like it's time for me to pick up a pair and take a few pics :smile:
It does look very white, but not any brighter - I agree.

Those look great! I can't wait for them to stock other colors. I'm thinking of going with blue all around except in the trunk where I'll use the clear ones.

Question- Does the lighting fade out after you close the door with the new bulb upgrade? Also- is the light overbearing?

Yes I too am interested to know about that.

The fader on the dome light still works with the HiLED.
Which light are you having trouble getting at jimcat?
To open the dome light, just pry it open (carefully) with a small flat bladed screwdriver.
The maplight opens the same way - with a screwdriver blade at the side - pry it down and it swivels toward the middle - then you just pop it off the two pivot points.

Hello all,
I wouldn't say the white maplights are overbearing. Afterall, maplights are designed to help you read a map. So, they should be bright.
We do have the maplights (194s) available in blue, red, green and amber. However, white is going to be the brightest.
LEDs do work with faders. The voltage level controls the light output. HiLEDs do have circuit protection. So, at a certain point, an increase of voltage will not make it brighter and burn it out.

The stockers are already way too bright to be in your eyes IMO... they detract from vision at night, defeats the purpose... they really need to be more directional/focused.

Kind of a mixed bag.
Here's the HiLED (on right) compared to a PIAA Super LED:

You can see the HiLED is many times brighter.
Here it is compared to the stock bulb:

The stock bulb is brighter and spreads better. The HiLED is a much nicer color though. I think I like it better.
The big improvement was in using the PCB-Dome light bulbs in my footwell lights:
Before:

After:

The disappointment was in the hatch light. The festoon fit in there, but I had to angle it to get it in. Only about half of the light gets thrown into the hatch area. It was brighter with the stock bulb. I can't see any way to modify the housing to get a better fit.

Call them. That's what I did. They shipped it out immediately.

its a 194 what I don't get is, the wedge shape is the same as the o.e.m bulb but has a different number? kinda like 3057 and 3075 bulbs......am I assuming correctly to just order a few sets of 194 l.e.d packs and that is that?
