I went with the package that JDMtoy sells. Had bulbs for doors, front and rear domes. Pretty bright. It was the SMT rated package. Also if you haven't already you should get the white LEDs for your license plate.

nothing too bright. a soft, sensual, subtle light will do...lol . no seriously, i just want a pure white LED with moderate lighting...i don't want to get a suntan when i open my doors.

if you are looking for subtle, you can save money and buy from superbrightleds...they are not overbearing but at the same time pretty bright and cheap

I would stray away from the LED board as they can be overpowering....

check these out:

http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...ini-wedge.html

look for the 921x12....they have 12 small LED's (NOT SMT) so they are plenty bright and yet subtle...I put the x12's in the doors/trunk and put x9's in the map/dome....

plus they are only 3-4 bucks a pop as compared to 7.99 or 8.99

I just got this package. But went with the blue for the doors. Will let you know how it goes... $53 bucks incl shipping.

Anyone nice enough to post DIY links for domes and license plate? You'll have my eternal gratitude (not that's it's worth much off of Azine).

As for the license plate, remove the trunk liner by popping off all the clips, 1 screw, and 2 rubber things that slide in a direction.

Then after the trunk liner is off, you can replace the lights.
