LED Lighting Replacement Guide (w/Pics)

You could, and it would still be significantly brighter than stock. However, it's important to note that when you shut the doors to your car, the two outer bulbs/LEDs in your front dome fade out completely, leaving only the center one on (until it fades out completely later). If you only have the 2 outers, and leave out the center, there will be no light from your front dome for that period of time.

First & second posts have been updated. Now includes pictures and info on how to install the circuit board LED in the trunk light. I also tried out the circular circuit board LED, which I don't recommend because it doesn't match the color of the other LEDs in my guide. I also updated the blue LED replacement guide to reflect the release of the new high power festoon bulb for the rear dome - the direct equivalent of the one in the 6000K white guide.

GJ Brian, you're outdoing yourself. Maybe you should add official CL LED Expert in your sig now.
This would've been way more efficient then looking through the lighting mod thread when I first joined

When I changed the puddle lamps with V-LED white they seem to be kind of lose fit. When I push the LED all the way the light does not come on. I had to pull out a bit to get bulb receptacle and LED PCB lined up. Does anyone know if this will cause any problem in the future with car vibrating and hitting pot holes the connection might come lose?

^ You're welcome guys. Happy to help.
This is a known issue. You just push the LED in as far as it goes, then pull it out like 1 mm until it lights up. The connector in there is strange, but once you do this it's all good. I've hit plenty of pot holes with zero problems.
