Interior Lighting

Hey everyone,

I need help looking for some interior lighting, I'm looking for a clear blue or bright white. I'm installing some foot well LED strips that I bought from autozone and I want to go ahead and install the other lights.

If you're talking about replacement bulbs for the inside of the car, check out superbrightleds.com. Also, I got a 10 pack from Amazon and they have work flawlessly.

From experience I can recommend getting the Sylvania/Osram 194 LED bulb for the interior bulbs. Its the closest to OEM LED equipped vehicles color and output. Whats nice is they are readily available at Autozone and now even most Walmarts carry them. They are a bit pricey, but its cool to be able to just go get them and have them right away and they are a quality product. Youll need 6 to do the main interior lights, and two for the rear license plate.

I'm not really sure what your talking about as far as exterior goes, but interior uses #194 wedge bulbs.

Yes he said interior which is why I stated the bulb type and quantity needed for the interior. I also mentioned license plate bulbs as well because most people that do the inside do the plate as well and it's the same bulb. My apologies for answering his main question and providing additional info lol.

^ No worries I was just following main question and I totally agree with you. Might as well do the rear plates.

Thanks for the help everyone, I'll get around to ordering them soon. I forgot about the license plates and it'd be pretty cool to them too thanks JTS!
