I came up with this for the hatch...it's tapped into the factory hatch light so they come on/off together.

and this for driving at night and wanting to see the inside the dash compartments...

Hi i'm interested in bying some under dash led lights. Anything to suggest me? Is it complicated to install??

chrisj · 10-03-2010, 11:33 PM

There were a few people who have done it. I did a search for LED to get the posts. I was interested in using them under the seats possibly in order to maybe work for both the front and rear seats at the same time?

ive already ordered my hid kit & eye lids off of MI, so now i just wait for them to be shipped before i can put those suckers on.
the next thing on my list i want to do is put LED lights in my interior, also the two lights above my back license plate for exterior.

ive been trying to find a bundle, or even just the bulbs themselves on the link you posted but i cant find them at all, i am very bad with these kind of things

would you mind directing me in the right location to buy these lights?

chrisj · 10-04-2010, 01:24 AM

Well pspeezy, I got all mine from SuperBrightLEDS.com. Here is the link where you start. I got all the bulb sizes from elsewhere on the forums here, then just started finding them on the LED site. I bought my dome LED from ebay a month or so ago, but they have it on SuperBright as well (24 LED cluster was what I got). I got 2 map lights, one festoon cargo light (you have a sedan, so not sure about that one), plus I got the license plate light, and my LB has only one.

Here is the link to get started from (where I got mine)

http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...sp=%2F1157.htm

I got the map lights from this link: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...ini-wedge.html

I might reorder some brighter ones though. I think I got 6 LED and I could get 12.

My cargo light was here: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...2Ffestoon.html

I got the 6-pack on that one.

You can also get the license plate LEDs from that link for the map lights, I think.

Hope this helps.

ahhhh! words my brain understands! thanks a ton chris!

chrisj · 10-04-2010, 01:34 AM

yw! Just be careful ordering because there are TONS of bulbs on that site...to make sure you get the right thing. It was confusing for me a little, and I was relieved when everything went fine when I got them in. Everything fit and worked perfectly.

pspeezy · 10-05-2010, 02:11 AM

edit: nevermind i figured out exactly what lights to order finally :) i learned how to cross reference and all that jazz

chrisj · 10-05-2010, 08:57 AM

Once you get the types you need and get them installed, then you can take a look at other things like brightness (more or less LEDs in the cluster) and colors. Now that I have mine in, it would be a snap to change out to colors, but I may go up in brightness on my map lights some. The bulbs are fairly inexpensive.

My next thing will probably be footwell lights, maybe installed under the front seats.

Good job!!!

Qmobile · 10-08-2010, 12:23 AM

I wonder how led's would fare in the cluster/center stack controls? one of my knobs is out :( for some odd reason it just went out

I thought somebody did that? I thought I remembered seeing it somewhere here. Maybe they were just changing colors.

I replaced mine in my sedan, there's not a lot of space, so you can only use one smaller LED and a small resistor for each knob.

Qmobile · 10-08-2010, 08:29 AM

I believe, could be wrong, but I think all that's been done is a color change.

sqcomp · 10-13-2010, 12:15 AM

I just replaced my trunk light, my dome light, and my reverse lights. Thanks for bringing this information to light. Superbrightleds.com is about to make my car all LED...I'm ordering my turn signals and brake lights next week. The fronts will be the week after. Man those LEDs are bright! Good stuff!

Kaotic Lazagna · 10-13-2010, 03:08 AM

Might as well post mine:

(since changed this to two on each side)

Kaotic Lazagna · 10-13-2010, 03:15 AM

^ oh, and you'll have to disassemble each knob, pop off the holder holding the bulb in, install the LED in the holder, put the holder back in, plug in the wire harness back into the back of the control, test to see if you have the polarity right (if you do, great, reassemble the control knob, if not, pop the holder back out and flip it so that the polarity is correct). Then you can put everything back. hahahahahahahaha.

When you disassemble each knob, it's a good idea to have the settings all the way to the left or all the way to the right so that you can line up the gears correctly (careful to not lose those either).
