I'm trying to order a pair from v-leds.com but it's not letting me checkout?!? Also, I'm a noob when it comes to lights, can anyone guide me as to what to get for both dome lights the same color as the regular led map lights?? Please?? Lol

My bad I'm running Garax D4S HID bulbs.
Got them from CL vendor Car Light Trends.

This is probably a dumb question but just wanted to make sure what I am reading is correct.
So these bulbs are direct replacement for the fog correct? No ballast required?
Thanks Guys

Thanks. When I was at Auto Zone, I saw the sylvania silverstar 921s also for about $10 a pair.
I was tempted to get them and see how they look since we had the cars torn apart again. Was wondering how they would look if I wanted to have them blend in with my 4100K HID headlights, but imma cheap baassaad so I didn't get em. But I may try these for the front domes. They should fit, may be close though. The benefit to these is getting back the true light fade out that the LEDs cut short.
