GS400 - Bulb advice needed...

Then if that doesn't work I'm going to take those little bulbs out and just hook up some Blue LED strips down below....

Ok, I cracked and ordered 4 M4's, 4 M6's and 2 of the LED ones for the side to play with.
Thanks a lot.

I hope those LED ones aren't too bright for the side markers. I have single LED's in mine, and they are just right (to me anyways). Check 'em out on Sunday, and let me know what you think.

Late better than never.
Don't know if it's too late or not, but this might help answer some questions.

Look down near the end of the first page. Also have some pics on the second page. Pure clear during day(side markers), amber led(police friendly) by night.
I'm an LED junkie. I'm still waiting to see if mr. sypher replaces the footwell lights with 194 sockets. I'm thinking about trying this myself.
BTW, the dome light is commonly referred to as #3175. I've got the PIAA xtreme white in the dome and Raybrig 135s in the map light sockets.

Bit, glad you asked.... I'm thinking about staying with my red theme, so that means that I might change out my Blue LED's for Red ones.. Let me see, I think that means that I need 14 Red LED bulbs.. Yeah that's it 7 pairs.... But make sure there RED not blue, OK????
Blanc, hopefully my GS will be ready tomorrow and I can pick it up.. If it is then I'll ask my buddy of there if he has some harnesses around that I could have and I'll do it as soon as I get home...

Before any of you say "yellow", I know that already. I'm just wondering how "yellow" and how bright. Anyone know a good place to buy those Ion bulbs from???
Thanks,
Blanco

Alright guys I got some bad news and some good news... First the good news... The new tranny is already installed in my car and fully functional well almost fully... It seems as thought it wasn't my tranny or the solenoid that was causing my problems.. Because now the E-Shift still isn't working, but it shifts to fifth now.. Or so that's what they say.. And now the bad news, Lexus has to order me a whole new computer for my GS because they don't have a clue as to why my E-Shift is working... So that means my car won't be ready till atleast Wednesday of next week... That really sucks, but atleast I got a new tranny... So that footwell light mod is going to have to wait... But feel free to try it and let me know how it turns out....
Here's a pic for all you that don't know about my GS's problem...
