The connectors are kinda of crappy. The LED bulbs work fine, but they aren't keeping good contact and were cutting out. I'm not interested in getting pulled over because my license plate bulbs were finicky, so I just went back to the stock bulbs temporarily. I plan to fix the connectors myself.

Right now its just chrome. I am going to finish it with Dupli Color Shadow for a black chrome finish. I am hoping it will be a nice subtle finish

Well I got 10 for about $7 shipped vs the $15 for 2. I didn't have any trouble installing the exact same bulbs in my interior, but when I did it for Tracie, the hatch and one of the map lights gave me a hell of time getting the wire to connect properly. As I mentioned, I've got an idea for creating a much larger contact surface area for the LEDs.
