Interior LED Pics!

Hey everyone, I own an 05 DGP TL and decided to do a complete LED interior makeover along with some underdash strips. Before you say "eww" or "rice", I wanted to keep with the color scheme of the car and try and improve upon it because it is a very rare color. Here are some pics

(Getting custom magnaflow exhaust installed tomorrow or Tuesday)

Nope, no sarcasm at all. I just wanted to make sure I saw the pictures right. I wasn't sure if the pictures you posted had exposure issues with your camera or not.

Just a suggestion for the future

If you want something a hell of a lot brighter for your license plates, I would suggest getting any of these green forward facing bulbs

http://www.v-leds.com/194-168-158-LE...orLanding/true

They are so bright that they will light up your rear bumper as well as the floor behind your car. The ones you currently have only light up the words 'PENNSYLVANIA' on your license plate. It doesn't even reach "FREEZE", the light output dims down a lot before it even reaches it. Those V-LEDs will light up YOUR WHOLE LICENSE PLATE, and not just the top portion nearest to the bulbs.

The reason why I asked you what kind of green LEDs you are currently using is because they don't seem bright to me at all.

I would love to see how those v-leds forward facing bulbs would look on your car in GREEN!

These pictures dont do the birhgtness of the lights justice. At night my license plate is completely lit up bright green with the light flowing across the ground.

I have a DGP too and I like the rareness and the color. I also like that the interior has blue accent lighting (gauges, courtesy lights, etc)

That being said, for my LED upgrades I went with white. I think the green clashes too much with the blue and the parchment color. Thats also why I didn't do blue LEDs for the interior, because it clashes and becomes too much with the parchment.

Jus' sayin'

May not have been a color I would choose, but as long as you like it that's all that matters.
