Default LED bulbs for interior

I found an old post that had this site http://superbrightleds.com/leds.htm to get LED bulbs from for my interior. Which is great but I really know nothing about bulb sizes and Im not sure what ones I need. I wanna have the interior lighting the same color as the dash. What bulbs would I need for the front 2 over head and back 2 over head lights, as well as the ones underneath the dash that light up the floor. Have any of you matched yours with the dash lights? Oh and its for a 99 A4 thanks!

You might not be happy with red, they will probably not be bright engouh. I currently have red and white (I have it set up so I can used them seperatly) but the red isn't really all that bright.



If you decide to go with red. Get the brighter chip style.

That red actually looks like what I want, something not super bright so you can't see through the tint as easy. Is that light count right? I count 2 on the floor, 4 small bulbs in the front and back overhead, and 2 larger bulbs up front overhead.

Yup That's the right amount. Unless you want to add the two above the sun visors.

the 3910 is a 39mm festoon bulb i have ordered lots of bulb from here and never have had a problem with one

answer to ironman
they are plug and play the only thing i have found that leds don't work good as are dual use light such as 1157 which are parking lights and brake lights and when using as a turn signal you need to add a resitor to get them to blink at the right speed
