Direct replacement blue LEDs for door light

See the last two pics. As you can see you can directly replace your regular light bulbs in the side door and maplight.

These and these will also work, though probably not as bright. That one looks BIG! How does it fit in the door socket? I have the Autodynamic ones in my doors and I took a blue 1206 SMT LED off one of the circuit board wedge types and used it to replace the stock SMT LED in the ignition. Have you changed out that one yet hchhon? It takes a short 90 degree phillips to get out.

Nate,

I have not change the light in the ignition key yet. Is it a blub or LED in here there? I will put a super blue LED in there soon. Is it hard to get it out?

Ahh, it was hard to tell the scale in the first pic.
Does it shoot a beam or is it pretty widespread? Got a pic of it in the door?

Ignition light is a surface mount LED. Its pretty easy to get out once you find all the screws. It will require a 90 degree angle phillips screwdriver as the steering wheel gets in the way of one of the screws.

Tommy,

$200 for the CD/radio with ultra red LEDs or $280 with super blue LEDs.

I don't do the gauges because it is to hard and time consuming.

Nate,

I installed two of them in there (on each side of the door) by cutting off the base of the cluster LED and mounted two of them on one side of the PCB and mounted the the side of the PCB with the base that I cutted off. You got it? It fit perfectly! Very bright!
