Default LED Lights for Door

So I need to replace the lights on the inside of my doors. I was thinking of getting LED for replacement. Do you guys have any specific ones that you would recommend buying?

I've bought LED lights from VLEDS.com. They're bright. I've had them for more than a year and no problems so far.

I seen a lot of stuff about VLEDS, but I really don't like the price for each bulb. I assume you are paying for high quality bulbs then.

Yeah, they are a bit pricey since they sell them in pairs or individually as opposed to a whole package for one model of a vehicle

I also bought some of my LEDs at Precision LED (http://www.precisionled.com/). Although it's great they bundle it into a package for the IS and include the plastic prying tools, I felt the LED lights weren't that bright. I've had these since 2014 and no problems yet either.

If you mean the door courtesy lights, then this:

http://store.ijdmtoy.com/Lexus-IS-ES...s-p/75-008.htm

Its the entire housing, making it clear instead of red. Before I had clear housing with LED bulb. This one is hella bright.

Those are the ones I originally bought. However, the one on the passenger side already went out.

I have these and they work great! No issues at all they blink red led when the door is open but also have solid WHITE led's on at the same time.

They have a full white non blinking version here:

I have the blinking red / white version (red blinks) as it serves as a safety
