Hey man,

Welcome to crew 1st of all.

2nd - Hopefully you check out this thread from Xtin: Click Here

She got:
2 maplights
2 back dome lights
2 front door lights
2 license plate lights
1 trunk light
1 console light (single LED)
I glovebox (single LED)

She used 6LED, but then went to 9LED for a better look. She paid $50 for 13 bulbs back then, but now the prices have gone up a little and some are paying around $70 for 11-13 bulbs. She used techtoyz too and recommends it.

You can also do 2 reverse lights and trunk lights (8-10 trunk seals need to be taken out for that tho I believe). Also the turning signals upfront, headlights, fog lights, etc. I think the only lights that haven't been touched are the rear turning signals, the brake lights (because they are already LED's), and the 4 little lights in the side reflectors that are around the car. Other than that everything can be changed.

I would recommend doing a "search" on the topic before posting a whole new thread just for the sizes of the bulbs. I know Xtin's thread doesn't mention much about the actual sizes of the bulbs, but it would probably be best to post a message in there about your inquery.

Hope this helps ...

Brian at tec-toyz can tell you exactly what you need. If you have problems installing, just PM me. The toughest are the center console and glovebox (inside both of those) since the bulbs need to be filed down to fit and tend to break. You might want to avoid those.

Has anyone changed out the blue courtesy lights to make them brighter? They hardly show up at all. Actually, I'm not even sure what they're supposed to do. Are they on all the time at night when driving?

I don't think anyone's gone there yet as they're directly attached to a circuit board.

They're designed to be subtle.
