Awesome New Product - HiLED Interior Dome Lighting!! - Page 4 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Terrorize · 01-20-2007, 04:05 AM

Is the dome light exactly the same in both LB/HB and Sedan?
I'm thinking of getting this too...i was actually looking for a bright replacement bulb before...good thing i didn't get anything yet...heh heh this is so much better!

Got mine - unfortunately, they sent the wrong size. I wasn't even aware that there was more than one.

*sigh*

*Chris07LB* · 01-20-2007, 09:57 AM

Yea, the middle piece, between the two ends does look longer then mine that I posted on the first page.

Violin · 01-20-2007, 10:13 AM

Yeah - there's no way to cram that in there. The packaging references 31, 41 & 45mm lengths but there is no mention on the web site and no one there thought to ask which I needed.

I guess its off to the post office after I can speak to Bob.

*Chris07LB* · 01-20-2007, 10:19 AM

Can you twist the ends off, and trim the center down a bit?

*Chris07LB* · 01-20-2007, 10:22 AM

.....................on second thought, after looking at an extra HiLED i have here, you will need to heat one end up (loosen the soldered end), remove the end, cut the cylinder to size, slip the end back on, and re-solder. 5 minute job at most, or you can just return it for the correct one.

Violin · 01-20-2007, 10:36 AM

Nah - I'm going to return it for the right one which (as best as I can tell) is the 31 mm length.

I'm extra pleased because I dropped the stock bulb as I was reinstalling it and it got lost - I think under one of the back seats. So now I have no dome light until the replacement arrives.

Just came in from installing the Festoon in the trunk... SUPER BRIGHT, SUPER COOL..

Scrivi · 01-20-2007, 08:43 PM

Mine arrived yesterday and it is crazy bright! Not just that but it is a nice pure white and doesnt heatup. I went through a drivethru and turned it on to find change. The guy said wow what do you have in there! I want that in my car. I also installed the 194s in my girls girl (parking and license plate) and they look great. Not blue like the pictures but a very bright ice white. Im gonna get yellow ones for side markers and let you know.

Another pre-release tester model? I hope they make it available soon. And then indicator bulbs!!!

*Chris07LB* · 01-21-2007, 07:24 AM

FYI - side marker bulbs DO NOT remove. Its a sealed housing, and unless you heat it, and open it without breaking it, then and only then can you change out the bulb.

Violin · 01-27-2007, 12:05 PM

It was worth the wait!

Now all I need are festoons for my well lights and the hatch... maybe the map lights too.

Oh... and maybe I'll hook up something under the hood...

*Chris07LB* · 01-27-2007, 01:05 PM

Sounds like you listened to my phone convo yesterday with Bob, lol!

He's leaving for over-sea's this weekend, but when he returns, there will be quite a few new things you will see me posting up.

OgDogg · 09-01-2007, 02:08 PM

I just ordered HiLEDs for pretty much every light on the car. I definitely won't be telling my girlfriend how much those pretty white lights cost though. :)

Led_Yaris · 09-03-2007, 10:40 PM

Hey these lights look great but i live in Ky

and all the dealers are in Cali. so i guess these guys ship anywhere but was wondering what shop u guys are buying from or if it really matters?

I don't think it matters what store you order from. I placed my order and they're shipping it out without any problems. It came out to about $140 for all the lights needed to replace the factory ones. :)

*Chris07LB* · 09-04-2007, 11:12 AM

They ship oversea's, so its not an issue.
