looks like rear dome in 6000k is sold out

 

^
JLCLighting has domes in stock
-----------

Just to make sure people's terms are not mixed up. Front dome should be better known as map lights. Dome should be the rear dome.

 

The guide in the first post has been updated to reflect the fact that the rear dome LED has been discontinued and replaced with a newer style.

 

i just ordered a bunch of v-leds today, including the "new style" of rear dome bulbs. wish me luck!

 

Cool, let us know how the fitment and brightness/color are compared to the rest of your LEDs.

 

Thanks for the complete listing Brociouz, it has helped me out tremendously when looking for LEDs.

 

You can use JLC 6-SMD D31 for the rear dome.

Trunk - JLC Festoon Adapter and 12-SMD panel.

Coutesy/front dome (aka map)/Mirror/Vanity - JLC 5-SMD T10. Fits perfect, and no modifications required.

 

Thanks for the pics Sango. You should find someone in your area with the V-LED lights and compare them.

 

When V-LED's were out of their rear dome blue LED's I ordered a pair of 6 LED blue lights from JLC. They were a completely different shade of blue which bugged me so I've now got a set of 4 LED blue lights from V-LED's.

I've compared them side by side and the V-LED's bulb is obviously brighter. I can only speak for the blue shade, however.

If it's being compared to V-LED's high powered ones, then it's not a fair comparison since the high powered ones look more like a projection beam than ambient lighting. Also, the high powered ones will have a shorter life span for the same reason.

I've never seen the blue ones from JLC in person but did see a blue in person from jdmtoy since a friend got one for his Hyundai Sonata. I was considering to help a friend get a blue light too but most likely all the blue's are too dark because hes looking for a light blue (baby blue), color LED which unfornately does not exist yet for this application.

 

Thanks Sango. I have LED trunk lights but not as bright so I'll get this panel. But is it this one:

Do you have a direct link? Thanks.

 

Yep, that is the same panel I have. Pretty bright - I did not get a picture with them on - will get pics when I'm back in Canada since I have a tripod so I can get good shots of the LED's without the flash in the dark.

With the panel, it lights up very well inside with everything visible - bye bye stock bulb.

Two slight changes. When I had it installed, I adjusted the metal bend to more of a 90 degree than obtuse so that it is more flush with the festoon adapter. The other is, with the festoon adapter, I removed the spring because the length is tight enough without it at the most inner position and the bend is tight enough to keep the adapter secure.

The panel does come with a 3M pad on it and as you can see in the picture, I never actually used it. I managed to slip the panel underneath and and is kept secure by the metal movable switch which has enough pressure on the pad to keep it down and does not affect the difficulty of switching on and off.

 

The trunk light replacement is one of my favorite LED swaps. The stock halogen is almost completely useless (most people don't even know they have a trunk light it's so dim, or turned off hah).

Those JLC panels look just like the ones Nigel sells. Does anyone know where they're sourced from?

EDIT: I'm now recommending JLC for the trunk light. V-LEDS discontinued the one I was recommending.

 

I agree all my lights are from them :]

 

I got all my LEDs from iJDMToy, but I it is only my interior (domes (R&F) and vanity).... I want to complete the interior (courtesy, trunk) and exterior (puddles, parking, reverse) wondering if I should switch brands all together or mix-match them... I want the lighting to be the same...
