ahhh thanks, i'll go pick some up today. I also heard that you have to make sure that they are not over 5 volts or else the indicator light will still remain on in the consol. Is that true?

I switched dome, maps, footwell, doors, trunk, glove lights to leds from superbrightleds. and haven't had any problems. I'm sure someone else can chime in who switched out lights a while ago, but I'm pretty sure most lighting manufacturers mentioned on CL aren't gonna fire off any messages on your console. I searched the threads before I went with that company and they got mostly thumbs up, it that helps.
