Installed my leds but.. licenses plate bulbs problem
i installed my leds today took me less the 1 hour for all the interior bulbs, licenses plate bulbs, back up bulbs and door bulbs.
i had little trouble with license plate bulbs i had to remove the complete license plate bracket to get the bulb out and in.
i didnt have any trouble with vanity bulbs came out lot easier then licenses plate bulbs
i got the 194 supernova for license plate and one is very bright and other one is like yellowish its a big difference anyone had this problem or know what could be the problem

Sure you didn't put the original bulb back in one side? Kind of a dumb question I am sure. The led's either work or they don't. If you put them in backwards they wont light. Try taking the bulb out and swapping it out with the other one. If it's yellow looking on the other side as well, then it's got to be the bulb. Also make sure the leads on the ends of the bulbs are bent out to make a goiod contact.

Advice on LED light install
I just picked up some LED's for interior and license plate. I did the License Plate last night. A little trickier than expected trying to get the housing locked back in place but no prob. I am about to start the interior stuff and didnt want to crack the vanity light covers on the door etc. Do I need to remove door panels or do the covers pop off. Same question for the dome lights, and glove box, and center console.
Thanks

the covers pop off very easy like on the doors, its probably the easiest of all lights. the glove box may need to be removed in order to get to that light, when i changed my cabin filter it appeared that you could not access it unless you removed some stuff first. but i havent done this yet, and probably wont so i may be wrong. the domes are pretty easy, just use a little flat screwdriver and work your way around. center console it easy. it just twists out if i remember correctly, and this uses the same light as in the glove box. the vanity lights are kind of a pain, but there are instructions on how to do it properly. just do a search.

You can pop the glove box light out with the glove box as is. But it doesn't leave you much room.
It's easiest to release the glove box so it hang down on the hinges. You don't need to remove it all the way, just the side stop/slider and let it hang.
Glove Box and Center Storage Console are the exact same Diffuser/Twist Socket/Light set up.

glove and armrest are a bitch(little room to play with) all other interior are pretty easy.
to the op: maybe your not making enough contact.try moving the metal contacts on the bulb or try wiggling it in the socket and see if it gets brighter......
