This is my on-going quest to replace all of my lighting with LED's.  Enjoy!

Instrument Cluster & Gauges

License Plate 
#194 License Plate White 0.5 Watt High Power SMT
I was shocked, the lense cover for these bulbs were so dirty I'm suprised any light could shine through before haha.  I cleaned it up & slapped these in.  Wow, these are so bright they leave a "cutoff" of sorts on the ground.

Reverse Lights
V-LED's #921 (reverse bulbs) HID White 14 Mini-SMT 5 Watt High Power bulbs
These bad boys are 5 watts which run pretty hot for LED's so they're not for sustained periods of use which is perfect for the back up lighting.  The pictures do them no justice, they're blinding if you stand behind them.

Stock vs LED's

Side Markers
V-LED's #194 Amber 5 SMT bulbs
Sweet deal as autolumination sells these for $8.99 each, V-LED's they were $8.99 for both.  Very nice improvment over my faded amber wedges in my busted ass clear lenses.

Stock vs LED's

They look bright even with the lights on

Map Lights
V-LED's #194 HID White 5 SMT bulbs
These are very similar to the sidemarkers in design.  A bit tricky to get the stock bulbs out but worth it.  The beam's spread is even & smooth, very few dark or bright spots!

Stock vs LED's

Dome Light
Autolumination's Cool White 25 SMT 38 x 38mm Dome Array
There's lots of choices in size & types with this one so be sure you order the Festoon bulb size #578 (sometime referenced by length at 29mm or 1.5" bulb).  The LED array has 25 SMT style led's & is 38,, x38mm which is about as wide as will fit.  If you could find a rectangle array that was say 38mm by 80mm that would work.

Trunk/ Cargo Area
Oznium's 2ft Cool White Waterproof Ribbon LED Strip
For the size of these led's they are bright.  62 lumens & 1100 mcd bright!  Even though they are advertised as being "cool white" which usually has a Kelvin Range (color rating) of about 4000-6000k, these are easily 8000-9500k (the same way HID's are rated for color).  What's that mean?  Well they're definately white but the camera picked up more of the purple-ish tint present with that high range then the eyes really do in person.  I cut off & hardwired these into the wires there for the #921 bulb that was there.  If I would have had a spare bare socket, I could have made these plug & play.

Following in my shift to "spice up" the exterior I added a pair of black housing headlights.

I also purchased a Carbon Fiber Hood & Trunk from Carbon By Design. Don't fear though... I haven't totally shifted my usualy thought of Function over Form. These parts are considerably lighter than the stock pieces. In fact, when I pop my trunk, the trunk lid looks like it's going to shoot through the rear window! I've since had to adjust the trunk springs to compensate for the reduced weight.

I've owned my car for 3 years now & the only "looks" mod I've done was a set of clear side markers. It was about time for a change.

These are 17x7" Raze R74 rims in gunmetal w/ polished lip. The tires are Hankook 225x45x17 Ventus RS2's.
