Just ordered a set of bright whites... I'll have to figure it out for myself, since I'm gonna miss the meet! (Not moving to Towson until the next week!

Holybear, buy the either the 168/194 or 921 bulbs (depending on the brightness you want, # of LEDS) from Tec-Toyz for the liscense plate lights. If you look in the manual it tells you how to replace the rear backup lights. They are in the same area as those. Just undo the trunk fabric/insulation and you can get acess to the liscense plate lights.
Goodluck

Yeah I installed the white 9LED backup lights and they gave much less light than the stock bulbs...anyone else have this issue or are my lights defective??

Yeah, that's the next thing I'm having done to my car... after 5 years of Texas summers (where we pray it will only get to 90 degrees) without tint, I've learned the value!

It just hit me, but did any one check to see what bulb is used for the flip down mirror both the driver and the passenger?...thought it would be cool if you gonna mod the LED lights then do it all the way...

I am really interested in the Led interior lights, but I wonder if they are bright enough for actual practical use (like finding things in your center console, etc.).
I have an 06 anthracite/ebony int./with navi/30% tint all around
Do yall have any suggestions with which color I should use. I think I would like the blue but scared it might be way to blue and not practical
Any suggestions or thoughts?

Personally I think there's enough blue there already. The white LEDs emit a cooler temperature of light so it's a great mix.

I just installed the Bright Whites too... they look great! (They are brighter than they look in the pics - these were the only ones that weren't too blurry.)
