I hope I don't get in trouble here for posting this since I have not became a Vendor here yet but I just wanted to clarify my pricing with everyone to clear up any confusion!
ALL members of this forum are given the exact same pricing if they purchase directly from me (Not eBay or my website). I have not raised my prices any and will not ever raise them for the members. The pricing basically breaks down like this: $5.00 per 9LED bulb, $4.00 per 6LED bulb, $1.50 per Single LED bulb (for the glovebox and center console), and $3.00 shipping for any amount of bulbs (US or Canada).
The Complete Package I have been offering members runs $71.00 shipped and contains 15 lights total. Here are the lights that are included: 2 Door Lights, 2 Front Map Lights, 2 Vanity Mirror Lights, 2 Rear Overhead Lights, 1 Glovebox Light, 1 Center Console Light, 1 Trunk Light, 2 License Plate Lights, and 2 Reverse Lights. All the bulbs are 9LED except the glovebox and console Single LED bulbs and are available in any color(s) the buyer chooses.
I apologize for any confusion perceived but wanted to clarify this for everyone.
As always, email me anytime you like for any reason at Brian@Tec-Toyz.com ! I am always here to help whether it is new sales, problems, issues, etc! Just please be patient with replies as I am a one man show and average 75+ emails daily now.
Hopefully one day when time allows I will be able to become a Vendor here! I greatly appreciate everyones business and it has been my pleasure to serve you all. Thank you Acurazine for all the referrals!

Clearly, the top pic looks plain white, the bottom more blueish. But I'm thinking the top is more accurate? Yes?

I mean its fucking lights that cost $5 so buy one blue and one white and try it out. ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)

Not even in the same realm. Unless this is merely an example of how different cameras react - I'd like to know which one is accurate.
1) the top picture is in a darker environment
2) the bottom in a more lit environment
3) the top picture is more vibrant, because its closer to you and the camera in the shot.
4) color is descibed differently from everyone.
So if you care what my opinion is the top picture looks more like the hiperwhite........ but I suggest you get neither so your not angry after spending $70 on leds that you thought would be more white than blue.

OK, just to add more to the argument...or discussion, take a look at the pic of my WDP in the same config https://acurazine.com/forums/wash-wax-23/door-panel-trim-replacement-137937/ .
The photo is pretty accurate and after using it like this for a while, I loike it. I can actually read stuff with the map light now! (OK, I may be getting older too!).
As an aside, I can also say that Brian from Tec-Toyz stands behind his LEDs 100%. I had a problem with one, but he replaced it very quickly and without the least bit of difficulty. I would do business with him again...but I can't convince the wife she needs LEDs inside her MDX!

Wow ckya, those are some nice pics! Would you mind if I used them on my website under the Customer Rides section? I am trying to collect pics of various customers' rides for example pics on the sight and I am having trouble getting submissions. If anyone else out there would like to have the rides added or wants to send pics, PLEASE send them my way at Pics@Tec-Toyz.com and I will gladly post them! Include your name or nickname and location if you like, but please blur out any license plate info if sending license plate pics! Thanks again everyone for your business!

My avatar is a photo of the car when I was using straight blue LEDs. I only switched to white in the front after my wife complained she couldn't read anything (not like she reads Tolstoy as we drive through town, however). I switched the fronts to white just to see what it was like and I stuck with the mixed white front /rear and doors blue look. Blue is definitely max on the sickness scale, but white can be still be sick while making things a bit easier on the eye.

Hey yall quick question, has anyone else experience the blown fuse scenario mentioned above? I'm considering this mod and wondering if this is a common occurence. Any electrical wizzes out there who could give the lowdown on why or why not LEDs would blow your fuse?

When I reinstalled w/ the LED lights, I messed up the connection

It really shouldnt be a problem for you, or anybody, I was just doing it in a hurry...
And if you do blow a fuse its prob. the easiest thing to fix

Thanks brownie, i think i get what you are talking about. Another question for the masses: has anyone seen this done with the tan interior (i don't know what the official name is...camel?). I'm wondering if hyperwhite would be a good choice or if there is a better color that wouldn't be over the top. Its a dark emerald pearl 2000 tl-p by the way.

hello, i know ive read information on this but I have no idea how 2 pry open the vanity lights, i am getting it inbetween the metal and the lens and I kinda bent the metal a little bit but its not very noticeable. If anyone can be very descriptive on how 2 remove the lens I would very much appreciate it.

And yes, the white 12's are the 921 bulbs found in the mini wedge section at Superbright.
