re-did mine just now. i had a breakthrough while doing it lol. some of the bulbs werent working so i had to sacrifice some out of the doors. anyway i also threw in a 8-led light that is used for the dome but can be hardwired into a 194 bulb. before and after pics!

looks much better man! im so glad half of the interior bulbs are the same. i was missing a courtesy light on drivers side and i used one of the corner light bulbs since i switched to clear corners also put the other in the 4wd indicator for now. will do leds eventually once i get exterior the way i want. would like a blue coated 194 bulb look good instead of a led for now?

would these bulbs work for under dash doors and 4wd? http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=/specs/WLED-x.htm

i want to order them soon and need to know. dont know if i need to buy the wled5s to get a better look. wil the ones posted above look good in doors? they wil only cost me like 12 for all 8 or should i go for the better ones? if i should do better should i get cool white or natural? and would it look good with blue in doors and underdash too? or should i just stick em under dash and do white everywhere else besides in dash?

Ok so im in the hoe right now with my laptop swapping out the lights from the cluster, but how are they supposed to illuminate if the wire from the light doesn't touch the light holder?? i thought it was a plug and play???
