Interior LEDs

maybe you have them in backwards turn them around and try'em

 

[eandj23]

Step 1: Order lights off ebay - CHECK
Step 2: Begin anxiously waiting for the arrival of shipment - CHECK
Step 3: Install lights in my ride - cannot attempt until lights arrive and anxiousness wares off

Yeah I was leaning toward Putco but that price was WAY out of my range for some dome lights!!

They ship from hong kong, so it takes awhile. They should have sent you a tracking #, it'll at least show when it left them. its not very detailed like the ups or fedex sites.


....now if I can only figure out my puddle light problem!

 

[Nfamous60]

Got mines in love em only problem is the 2nd row does not fit in as smoothly as the from row and 3rd row does i think i need to scale down to a 41mm bulb in the 2nd row i got them to work but the connection is not pushed all the way in. none the less when i turn my interior lights on everyone like Whoa look at that..good mod love the brightness.

yeah i finally got them in yesterday and installed them, and love the way they look, one of the bulbs was messed up and a row of 4 LEDs was out so i took a picture and emailed the guy and he is going to ship me a new one, but other than that they are awesome

I got my puddle lights done, they are the same bulb as the license plate bulbs (if you have changed those).

Did you buy the same ones we have? i got them to fit in all mine including the 2nd row. Just had to squeeze the holding connections together and push the opposing connections out so that the grid would fit in...

i was talking about the interior dome light bulbs.i changed the outside ones allready last week haha

 

[Ickey]

Looks good!

Both exit lighting and approach lighting are set to lights 'on'.

A little late, but I've noticed the puddle lights only come on if it's dark enough to the light sensor. Just a thought.

 

[Nfamous60]

the bulb size for the interior replacements are 44mm and 12.5mm width (think thats the width) follow the original poster and when the page opens up look down to the bulb size he brought then go to the sellers ebay store and bam you're next in line. enjoy becuz i do love the look

yeah, i've been messing witht them only at night. i can see the puddles flash on when i unlock the doors(approach lighting)...i see my headlights/license plate lights stay on (exit lighting) when i exit..but puddles stay off. exit lighting is set to 2 minutes. i think its either a 2009 problem or a issue with just my car.

got mine from VLED.com and they are soooo amazing. a bit more expensive $12 a bulb but from the pics, i would say that mine are brighter....

i also got the puddle leds license plate leds and reverse light leds. what a difference.

although after seeing how cheap these are, i think i might have went this route

Which ones did you order from V-LED? I've ordered from them before and they are great.

According to the Sylvania website the bulbs are 212-2 which are a 41mm bulb.

I think I'm going to get these:

One of the sample photos is what looks to be a GMT92x truck.

These arrived today and the installed no problem. I had to squeeze a couple of the clips just a tad tighter but no biggie.

Should look good in the dark. I pointed the domes straight down and the maps a little towards each seat. I'll fine tune if needed.

Hey you may have gotten your problem resolved by now, but if you have try this. Quick story: I just swith out some regular bulbs for LED's on my motorcycle and the where the regular bulbs always stayed on, the LEDs didn't. Problem is since LED's use so little current draw the vehicle doesn't recognize it's there. My bike did the same thing, blinkers would blink but it won't stay on as running light like the regular bulb did.

SOLUTION: You need a resistor to equalize the load to recognize the led, go talk to an electrician or any cycle dealership and they will tell you what size of resistor to buy. BTW they can be bought from radioShack. I see ur in Cove, you must be a GI

Never found a solution to this. I'll definately look into a resistor.

Not a GI or in the Cove..in Corpus.
