just making sure....is this the right bulb to purchase for the 04 TL...for the doors?
i think blue would be the hottest since most of the interior lights are blue

i got the dome lights to, just to see how it would look but don't know how to get the covers off for the dome/maplights -
anyone with a service manual care to explain how to replace or take off the cover for the front and rear map lights.
thanks...

Well, I just got my LEDs for the doors in the mail today. Installation took a grand total of about 3 1/2 minutes. All mods should be the easy! I think it looks great on my SSM/Quartz. In fact, I may get some more and do the domes too. Best $6 I've spent in a while....

I just installed the blue lights for the front doors. It looks better with the blue. I have a parchment interior which looks sharp but not as good as the black interior.
I was trying to replace the dome light with white leb bulb, but I am not able to remove the bulb. No help in the manual.
ANY TIPS??????

Yo Wicked Wiz,
I ordered 3022-2 LED Festoon bulb - White
and 3022-4 LED Festoon bulb - white.
but it doesn't appear as if this bulb will work with the dome light.
The two lights between the front tow seats??
Thanks for the tip on removing the bulb anyway.

SO LET"S GET THIS STRAIGHT : BOTH THE DOME & DOOR LIGHTS TAKE THE SAME T13- B6 bulbs. CORRECT?
i've been eggrolled so, hopefully everyone else gets the right bulb. Regardless, their return policy seems liberal enough to correct this mistake.

When someones installs the correct WHITE bulb for the dome light, please let everyone know if the change makes a dramatic effect. I will then look into buying another set of bulbs or returning my dam festoon bulbs.

eggroll
that was just a friendly eggroll ribbing - i thank you for sharing this info. i just can't figure out how come you gave the impression you installed the dome and door lights succesfully and yet gave out the wrong info with regards to the dome.
