Anyone know what the bulb part# is for the lights above the rear view mirror? Looking to change to blue. Thanks

 

The bulb is a 12V 10W bulb. If you buy Polar B1 Hybrid bulbs, it is part# M-16. The bulbs are sold in pairs only.

By the way, when you change the overhead lights above the rear view mirror, change the overhead light in the rear also. Same bulb.

 

Thanks for the info

 

I looking to do something like this but I can't find a really blue bulb that it is bright enough.

Do you have a pic of the M-16 bulb? please post it.

 

The map light bulbs are 31 x 10mm Festoon bulbs. I'm going to order from www.superbrightleds.com as they have those bulbs in a LED format. Good prices too.

EDIT*******

BTW... they also have 6LED bulbs for your doors, trunk and license plates there too for only $3 a piece. THAT is a good deal.

 

Thanks for the info.

Well I ordered my led lights to replace the three dome lights.

When I get them I will post some pics.

 

What are the part numbers that u got frm that site? I don;t see any $3 each bulbs...let me know

 

Let us know how they work.

BTW, if you want to get good diffuse lighting from an LED (which are typically very "pinpointy"), take a Dremel and shave the top plastic "lense" so that it is flat. Perfect diffused light.

 

Anyone know how to change the light in the back seat??? The front one just pops out with a screwdriver, i changed it today to hyperwhite.. LOOKS GREAT!! much better than the regular bulb. But the back seat one is different and NEEDS to be changed!! ANy help would be great!

 

Page 22-183 for the Ceiling Light Replacement:

1) Carefully pry off lense with a small screwdriver

Doesn't really say how (or show a decent pictre) though.

 

Has anyone replaced the cieling light in the back?? Any suggestions!!?

 

When I get my leds I will post pics of the install. I got an E-mail from www.superbrightsled.com saying that They are scheduled to be delivered this Friday. I plan on putting them in on the same day.

 

For the doors, trunk and license plate:
T13-W6 - White 6LED
T13-B6 - Blue 6LED
T13-R6 - Red 6LED
T13-A6 - Amber 6LED
T13-G6 - Green 6LED
- Some are $2.99 a piece, some are less.. depends on color

For the map lights and rear light
3022-4 Festoon Bulb - Choose the color
- Some colors add $0.75

Once again that is at www.superbrightleds.com

 

Thanks moda! I have no idea what kinda bulbs those uses. Really helps me.

 

I have my door lights, trunk and license plate lights replaced with LEDs now. I like the doors, love the license plate and satisfied with the trunk light.

Now I'm getting ready to do the map lights, glove box light, cubby hole light and I'm going to mod my storage bin under the armrest to have a light too.

 

Post pictures after the new instalation of the interior lights....would like to make sure if its bright enough

And also, just anotehr info, how many buls would I need for the trunk, doors and licence plate?

I guess

1 - trunk
2 - doors
1 - licence plate

3- map&dome light

Let me know if I am wrong.

 

bump for an answer. thanks

 

2 - license plate (they are kind of a b*tch to get to as well)

 

Thanks Moda_Way
Took your advice and ordered LEDS from the website you posted. I replaced the bulbs in the two front doors and the front and rear dome lights with the Ultra Violets. I'll be able to determine if I made the right choice tonight when it's dark. So far I like it, the originals are just way too bright for my taste. Wish I could post pics but I don't have a digital camera oh well sorry guys. P.S. I'm leaving the trunk light alone because I want that to remain bright even though it doesn't match the interior LED color.

 

Just replaced all the bulbs with BLUE that I got from the site Moda gave. Its looks great but you can forget about using it to look at maps or read during night since its kinda DIM...get the WHITE if u need it for those purpose

 

I did the same thing.
posted pics in gallery if anyone wants to see.

Don't need a map I have a Navi.

 

Thanks for the update. Getting ready to purchase the rest of mine and I will take your advice on getting the white.

 

Okay..anyone experienced what I am gettin? When I set teh front map light switch to OFF, the LED lights up, but dimmer as usual....goes off only when u turn the car off...

 

Nope!

 

I get that too. It look like they are just slightly glowing but not really on. If I switch it to door setting and the doors are closed they will turn off completly.

 

Oh.....at least someone else is experiencing what I am gettin.......why is that happening? Anyone knows?

 

I asked a friend who is an electricion and he gave me a resonalbe anwser. He said that when I switch the power off their is still a slight bit of power going through. About enough to drain your battery in about 6 weeks(lucky your battery recharges itself everytime you turn on your car). With any regular light bulb you would never notice because it is not enough power to light it up. However LEDs don't require but a minor amount of energy causing that dimming look. He says it will not affect or kill my battery.
