Instead of the domes or doors, I'd like to replace the ambient blue light by the HomeLink buttons with something brighter.
So…
What brightness is the stock bulb?
Can it be replaced?
If so, what different brightnesses are there?
Thanks.

In the link they have a blacklight (purple/blue) you think that is bright enough with 4leds for the dome? and what size are the trunk lights?

I like those HyperWhites, especially in the domes. I may go with those in the domes and the blue like ortiz's/CAPS in the doors. Might need those domes to actually see/read something so I better leave them white.

I ordered the white ones for the domes and for the doors... definitely much nicer than the stock yellowish light... the light almost matches the white in the gauges... even my wife likes it surprisingly...
I bought the blue ones for the domes and doors also, and tried them out --they definitely look cool but for practicality they are definitely not reading lights.... so I stuck the white ones back in...
I received mine in 2 days...

JiggaMan I didn't post it incorrectly. If you are tring to buy superwhite leds from www.superbrightleds.com they don't sell them.
You can buy them from http://autolumination.com/festoon.htm
or you can get a super white Zenon bulb from http://discountleds.com/festoondome.htm
Either way works well if you want white.

And a correction on the web site it is suppose to be www.superbrightleds.com for the blue bulbs, not www.superbrightled.com. I forgot the "s". sorry

'sup!
Love the blue lights....awesome. Definitely going to get them for mmy doors. But I need everybody's help on something. I want to get new bulbs for my taillights. I want them to be brighter, especially the reverse (white) bulb so I am thinking about switching them to LED's hoping they would be brighter. So I guess what I am asking is, does anybody know if LED's would be brighter than the stock bulbs already in my car? I tried going to the Superbrightleds.com website and don't know which ones to look at...don't understand the codes ;P. Don't know if they even offer any....Can somebody PLEASE help me? Will they be brighter? Do they sell LED bulbs for the tsx tailights? Thanks for any help you guys give!!

Here are the bulbs you'll need from Superbright leds
(you'll need to count to make sure)
Red 7443s (I think 2)
White 7443 (which you'll mod into a 7440 by pushing two wires around) (2)
Red 168/194 bulbs (I think 4)
White 168/194 bulbs (Use these for your license plate) (2)
In every case, get the largest amount of LEDs per bulb, so on the 168/194 bulbs, you'll be getting 6LED configs.

Hi Moda_way,
I was wondering if you saw these lights:
http://autolumination.com/3157_3156.htm
the matrix 25- LED lights. I know they are not the same code as the ones you mentioned but they also come in wedge and was wondering if you know that if it could fit in the rear lights since they are also wedge based. Anybody have any thoughts? Thanks!
