Lip Spoiler and LED updates
Well, I finally got some time off work and did the "install" this afternoon/late evening. I have a few boxes containing the fun stuff that will get installed over the holidays (actual tools required
). The camera didnt like it when I turned of the flash, but it still gives a pretty good shot of the blue glow. Glad I found the threads on both the LEDs and Lip spoiler. As you can see from the pics, the color matches perfect, no complaints for spending a total of $63 for the spoiler (included shipping) and $12.00 for the LEDs. When the doors are open, they wash everything around the car in blue. I kept the map lights with white LEDS as even having a navi, I ocassionally need to write down numbers at night.
Thanks for the all you that have already done this, made the decisions easy for me!

Thanks guys.
It's just you
The lip is against the leading edge of the trunk all the way down the spoiler. I noticed that in the picture, but the flash seems to wash out the area and give a "false edge" where the flash hit. If you follow the lip, you will see the actual edge of the trunk.
The rear LED is a 9, the doors are 4 and the map lights are 9 as well. You can buy the white ones through superbrightleds.com. What I dont understand is when you put LEDs on your plate lights....I would like the cops not to be able to read my plates if possible, not make it super clear for them to.

The bulbs are crazy easy to put in, your owners manual will even tell you how. I post the bulb sizes if you need them.

the 4s describe the LEDs per bulb, I used 4 in the doors, others have used 6 and used a 9 LED in the back and 2 9 LEDs in the front. I will post some pics tonight of the back.

It seems everyone including myself wants to know the following:
Door Panel Light Bulb Size Options (will a 921 be too light?)
Rear Dome Light Size Options (921 or 4410?)
Front Dome Light Size Options (921 or 4410?)
Where did everyone buy their LEDs?
Thanks,
Chris
