I'll take a picture so you guys know what im talking about.

I ordered these and installed them this morning. They fit fine. Just in case you're looking for replacements.

I got all my LEDS from Vleds.com they are legit. I had some issues with one in my headlight and they replaced it no problem.

Would buy from them again even though it costs more.

+1 on the Amazon ones. I have both the VLED and the Amazon and the Amazon are just as good if not better. Save some money with the Amazon ones

I just did all too recently. On the Map lights I was deciding if I wanted to get the panel board or just get a single bulb. I decided to just get a bulb and see how bright it was--it was complely fine and IMHO no need for this multiple panel board. It's expensive too.

I also did the visor bulbs. But they seem to be too bright! ugh

Are you guys cutting the plastic tab off or something?

wow count me in! I already have the LED license plate bulbs but Id like all the others...

I'm going to order the Amazon bulbs for the dome light. I don't like the idea of hacking my car up to make something fit.

hi gbrettin, yes you have to cut the plastic tab to make it fit as mentioned in my original post. if you don't want to cut anything, the smaller leds i used for the trunk should work as well.
