hahaha i see your still on the fence on the mirror puddles

The PAPAYA DOME MOD 2white/1blue it will give you the brightness you want when the doors are open and the cool lighting effect you want once you close the doors. BUT if you choose to run 3 blue bulbs in the dome it will be darker than stock due to color of the light being 'blue'.

Hmmm... this seems to contradict with what car_lost is saying.

For the interior lights, it's not as much of a concern I guess, but I'd definitely like the puddle lamps to be brighter than stock.

llamaboiz, where did you tap into for the trunk lights? is a switch used to turn it on or does it come on when the trunk is open?

So....if I change the DRL's, I have to keep my high beams "on" in order to have them be white instead of that stupid yellow? (assuming I install some white leds in the drl's)

Wait. Sorry. I think I am getting the drl's confused with the high beams. the drl's are the ones that are halfway powered throughout the day and are yellow, right?
