Default Cheap L.E.D. lights for you.

Just wanted to let you guys know (if you didn't already) This place sells super cheap LED bulbs for every part of you car. I have my whole interior done in blue and it looks sick as hell. So if you want good led replacement bulbs but don't want to pay much, go here.

You're gonna have to go measure you own cause I don't remember the sizes, and yours might be different. But for the interior roof lights, the main two are the festoon style and the other four are the socket style. ( I got the festoon ones with 9 leds and they the best)

Could you post a few pics when you get a chance? Sounds like it looks great - I'd love to see it.

I've thought about putting LED bulbs for my brake lights... because apparently I'm a target for getting rearended (3 times rearended in 2 years), and I don't want my Audi to become another victim on the list. I just wonder what the legality of it would be.

As long as the bulbs are the right colors, then your legal. Also you might want to consider the brake light mod in the DIY section. I did it and love it, pretty easy too, it will make you more visable.
Here are the pics, although it looks alot more blue when it's dark, but I couldn't get a good pic of it.

I did this on my Honda and I got the 19-LED 1156 and 1157 bulbs Wide viewing angles and the wedge for the tags lights, amber for the turns and red for parking and brake light, don't get white otherwise you'll see a white light through the red plastic, don't get narrow because it will give a focused light appearance

It looks a lot better, only problem I had was the brake lamp out bulb warning came on since the LED have very low resistance, I disconnected the bulb from the dash or I could of put in a resistor but those resistors get hot

The only resistors I put on were for the turn signals, otherwise they would flash too fast, read all the directions on the website, I'm very happy spending $50 and never have to replace the bulbs again, I like how the signals and brake lights come on faster than regular filament bulbs
