if youre looking for super bright leds for the map light or the dome light you should contact Nigel vendor here. he at one time was selling an easy plug and play set. very bright white.

I'd recommend Nigel's LEDs too. I can show you how bright it is sometime if you ever want to meet up

I got a set of bright white for the map and sunroof lights from a vendor over at my.is. They are nice and bright, but the one by the sunroof controls sometimes flickers.

I have a set of blue LED dome and map from AAC. Bright enough for me. Also got blue LED's in my doors and strips by driver and pass feet. In the process of swapping the gauge cluster and climate controls.

That's where I got my set from. It is a nice upgrade as far as interior lighting goes.

I didn't get one for the trunk, but that might be something I do in the future. Opinion question, who's LED lights are brighter and better quality, AAC or Nigel's?

i got a friend that bought from AAC. He had a hard time with the dome light. the bulb was a bit bigger then the oem lights so he had to shove that **** in. and the map light is weaker then the oem light. the picture they showed on the site does not match what you see in real life. AAC = No bueno
