S6 LEDs quick question
#3
interior lights are easy, try superbrightleds.com and you can buy replacement bulbs for your interior, bang boom easy. the license plate can be tricky tho because since leds run at a much lower wattage the computer thinks they're burnt out sooo you have to get a resistor of some sort. i think you can buy the led bulbs with resistors installed but idk. some people dont even have any issues

thanks bottlecap!
So I put in LED bulbs first into my vanity lights. They work great, but i noticed that after i turn off the car and when the dome lights turn off, the vanity LEDs get dim and after 2 seconds, i can hear something click in the back of the car then the light just starts a real dim flicker. But if i turn on another light in the car like a map light, the vanity turns back on full power, but then dim again when i turn it off.
Seems like they are all connected. Kinda think i just spent 100 bux on a bunch of leds for nothing. Might have to just resort to the old school Hyper white bulbs.
Any other suggestions? Thanks

They are simple drop in replacements and i have them in my other car now and they look pretty decent. As for the dome and map lights, I think i can put in the LEDs. The vanity's I still havent decided.
As for my Daytime lights? Do you know if there is a way to keep them on at all times even when headlights are on? I know the new A4's and A5's stay on all the time.

I did turn them on in my MMI, but once night comes and I turn the headlights on, the LED's turn off unlike the new A5's and A4s they stay on at night as well.
no complaints tho, the blue color already turns heads
Just hope my LED bulbs inside the car dont short things out.
