I wondering for preeps that did replaced OEM light with LED, would you guy be kind enought to show me where you got your LED from and which type of LED did you get, i'm looking at the BLUE LED and i just dunno where and which type of LED should i get.

what he said

 

can u guys tell me if the leds in the gauge cluster need to be soldered or they are plug and play? only reason i ask is cause i had to solder led's in my rsx cluster

 

Gauge cluster light are all plug-in. Go to the http://www.ledautomotive.com site and there is a nice DIY there for the gauges.

 

thanks prov, do u guys know the size of the bulbs by anychance.. i think i can get these bulbs cheaper elsewhere if i had known the sizes ? lol

 

I was thinking of buying the LED ( just the LED alone ) home and solder myself. not like they already made it for you.

 

the quality is prob crap though. there kinda pricy but look at the quality.

 

Well stated!

 

really? do u guys really think that theres a "quality" involved when it comes to LED's? i mean its an LED.. but i dunno.. neone of pix of SHITTY installs?

 

Just wanted to know if these LED are brighter than the OEM Bulbs? Thanks.

 

the replacements for the dash or the replacements for the interior?

 

All the LEDs will make everything brighter than stock.

 

not always true.

 

It is true if you get the packages from ledautomotive.com

I installed them in my car so I know...

 

depends on what type of leds they are... and the higher mcd... for example.. an led that exhibits 8000 mcd is waay brighter than that of 4000...

Dudes.. if you want CHEAP BRIGHT leds... with CHEAP shipping, for example less than 10 bucks.. search for your LEDs OVERSEAS... definitely some good buys there.

 

ya those are the good ones and you prob have the 9 LED's. i have the ones from tectoyz. they are bright but not all are as bright as them. so my comment still stands

 

ledautomotive.com sends all bulbs with resistors so you always need a resistor to go with your led's when installing otherwise you run the risk of burning out the led bulb. resistors are cheap but led bulbs are more expensive for those who want to buy all the parts themselves go to radio shack but i installed all my bulbs from ledautomotive.com and so far it works like a charm.

 

the tectoyz.com and ledautomotive.com lights are all bright and vary worth the price. highly recomended. i have the blue ones and it is brighter than stock. i think including shipping it was like 35 bucks for all the interior lights. and they dont burn out.

35 bucks sounds bout right for the climate control and clock kit which is 9 bulbs. It takes time but it is much better than the pale green in the end. if you want to go all out blue, i also bought my reverse glow gauges of ebay for $15 including shipping and they glow bright blue at night.

 

can someone tell me how to post my own thread with my own topic

 

go to the threads page and at the top of the threads there is a button link just click on that you should be able to figure it out from there

 

i agree. i installed the 9 leds and it really not that bright or at least i thought it would be brighter. the light isn't quite white either perhaps because it is not bright per say.

 

So does the dimmer switch work with LEDs or are you stuck with one brightness level?

 

They will adjust with the dimmer switch.

yup they sure will

 

I guess both.

 

they should be plenty bright. you have nothing to worry about it being dim. i have the blue ones and they are bright i have a link in my sig that will show you pics.

 

ledautomotive.com and they have directions on the website

 

i know everyone says ledautomotive.com....... but I have heard there stuff isn’t that bright... Someone on here did a full custom LED speedometer, air controls, and shifter. It was soooo nice... VERY BRIGHT and good quality. He bought all the LEDs and resistors and did it all himself. If your a somewhat good do-it-yourselfer then you can try. it ask him... (ill put up his name when i see it or find it). You can use the ledautomotive.com for the DIY for takin apart the dash and stuff. I think I too am going to try this sometime, if i get around to that ill make a good DIY for everyone. Good luck with whatever you go with.
