Interior LED Lighting List & Comparison (IMAGE HEAVY)

[thosedamnvoices]

Hello folks.
So I decided to do a write up on interior LEDs.

Here is my list for a full interior SMD LED conversion. These lights will replace ALL stock bulbs in the interior of your Tahoe or Yukon. If I'm missing something, let me know and I can add it to the list. I'm not sure if some models have glove box lighting or console lighting etc. If so, I'll add them.

From iJDMToys I purchased the following SMD LED bulbs:
1 x iJDMTOY 6 Lights Wide Angle Shine Deluxe SMD LED Interior/Complete Package for 2007 and up GMC Yukon or Denali (GMT900)
2 x iJDMTOY D29mm F30-WHP Fuse Type 6614F Sun Visor Vanity Mirror 5050 3-SMD LED light bulbs
Estimated Total (with shipping): $65.12

For Yukon XLs and Suburbans, you'll want to add the following:
1 x iJDMTOY 6-SMD 1.72" 42mm Festoon LED bulbs 578 211-2 212-2 214-2
This is for the 7th light in the cargo area of your XL or Burban. Since the bulbs are only sold in pairs, you'll end up with one extra bulb.
Estimated Total (with shipping): $81.11

In the next post, I have a write up on the bulbs accompanied by photos. I hope it is enlightening! (Get it?)

Hello folks.
So I decided to do a write up on interior LEDs. I purchased two sets, for comparison, from two different sources: SuperBrightLEDs & iJDMToy
Both of these bulb sets went on my 2008 GMC Yukon XL

From SuperBrightLED I purchased the following standard LED bulbs:
7 x 578 LED Bulb - 9 LED Festoon
(Part # 4410-CW9)
4 x Fuse LED Bulb - 1 SMD LED Festoon
(Part # F30-WHP-12V)
For the regular size Hoes and Kons, you would get 6 rather than 7 of the Festoon Bulbs.
My total cost from SuperBrightLEDs for those bulbs, including shipping came out to: $46.13

From iJDMToys I purchased the following SMD LED bulbs:
1 x iJDMTOY 6 Lights Wide Angle Shine Deluxe SMD LED Interior/Complete Package for 2007 and up GMC Yukon or Denali (GMT900)
1 x iJDMTOY 6-SMD 1.72" 42mm Festoon LED bulbs 578 211-2 212-2 214-2
2 x iJDMTOY D29mm F30-WHP Fuse Type 6614F Sun Visor Vanity Mirror 5050 3-SMD LED light bulbs
Again, for regular Hoes and Kons, you only 6 LEDs so you can just get the 6 bulb set and the vanity lights.
My total cost from iJDMToys, including shipping, came out to: $81.11

So, both companies shipped very quickly and everything arrived in good shape. I didn't need to contact either company so I don't know what their costumer service departments are like. In my opinion, I'm happier with the iJDM SMD LED set. It's alot brighter and they seem to fit a little better in the sockets which make them easier to install and aim. They are also noticeably brighter. For the extra money, I feel the SMD LEDs are the way to go. Below are my photos of the lights installed.

I installed the SuperBright LEDs first and the following are photos of them installed:

Next I installed the iJDMToy LED set and here are the following photos of them installed:

Do appreciate the write up. Quick question: are these light dimmable? In other words, do they gradually dim as they turn off?

 

[oreowizard98]

Good write up. I was just looking for this inof and was on Sylvania's site. Thanks again! Will be ordering shortly.

Did you ever order these? Which company did you buy from? Opinions?

I will let you know next week if they dim (I hope that they do) I bought the iJDMToy kit and it will arrived Saturday or monday via USPS.

I have full interior lights from Flashtech (local to me) and they are super bright in person. And exterior lights from vleds.

I have the 3157 switch back leds for turn signals and 5202 for drl's

Mine did the same thing, I paused for a second and reversed the postion that I seated the the light (Made the top the bottom, and the bottom the top) they seem to need to be placed with the current running a certain way unlike the stock lights.

I like to be a man of my word. So when the lights showed up today I put them in. As of now unless they have a break in period they do not dim to off when you set the alarm but I did notice that when you unarm the alarm they dim to normal light.

Great post this gave a new visual appeal to the Hoe, I purchased the zeon white (they have a hint of baby blue , what I hoped for) from iJDMToys. The lights are amazing.

And the one I was refrencing to you were iJDMToys.

I would like to amend my statement on the Dimming. After a few hours of use they started to dim for all purposes.

Looks to be a 42mm festoon bulb. I have been looking on AMAZON as well, and have not been very happy with the reviews from the companies that sell LED's with them. Some people have reported that the lights have cought fire and done damage to vehicles. If I were you, listen to the forums and stick with superbriteled.com or ijdmtoys.com they seem to have good reviews.

BTW....ijdmtoys.com has changed their web page and done some updating. It looks like they sale a 07 and up yukon xl package! All of your shopping done in 1 click.

Just an FYI for about 4 more dollars you get bulbs that are brigther then the standard 6 chip LED's.

Has anyone had fuse issues after installing these? I know that LED's draw less power but I keep blowing a 10A fuse after a few weeks of replacing it. The fuse is labeled, "IS LAMP."

 

[bacin87]

I have the iJDMToys installed for 8 months and never had a blown fuse. Your issue may lye somewhere else.

I replaced all the interior bulbs with the warm white LEDs from iJDMtoy.com. Very happy with them. I did use the xenon white for my puddle lights

I did the same with my puddle lights. They didnt seem to be noticeable.
