LED Upgrades

[LeoTheLion89]

I will gradually upgrade all my interior lights to LEDs. Where are the bulbs in the climate controls so I can replace those? Is there a better access to the Ash Tray Bulb rather than having to remove the stereo and cup holder to get to it?

as far as the cluster goes, Is there an overlay?

What I mean is if i replace the gauge bulbs with White LEDs with the gauges actually be white?

I also want to switch out all the "Idiot Lights" for LEDs too.

I have converted most the car to LED:


T10 (168) Amber LED Side Marker bulbs. (no picture of these installed)

LED License Plate Lights:


Installed:


Rear T10 sidemarker LEDs:


Installed:


1157 DRL switchback LEDs:


INSTALLED:

Brighter than the headlights!

DRL Mode (In direct sunlight).

Turn signal mode.

Rear Taillight LEDs:

Super bright, they are 3x brighter than bulbs.

Installed:


That is it for exterior LEDs.

Nice!

I like particularly the license plate light and the 1157 front lights.
For the latest is it a single led which is changing colors or still two different? Or in US when the turn light is active the front light is OFF? Also as led are polarised lamps I wonder about polarity and if you have to plug them a certain way.

Thanks,

Not sure if I understand 100% what you are saying.

The switchbacks are one bulb with one set of White LEDs and one set of Amber LEDs. The 1157/1156 bulbs are Polarized but they can only go in one way. The T10 LEDs are Polarized too (you can get wedge-base LEDs that are not polarized). IIRC, I had to flip every T10 LED i installed as they didn't work at first.
