I've asked the question in one of the threads, but decided to start a separate thread.
Not sure if http://www.vleds.com/ is one of the vendors on this forum, but here we go...
I'm looking to replace all of my interior lighting, as well as cargo area and license plate lighting, with leds from them and in need of help to be pointed as to what are the correct bulbs to use.
If someone could help, I would greatly appreciate!
As long as you've checked your bulbs and have the right sizes I think you'll be very pleased. I've bought several things from Vleds and have always been satisfied. The 5000k color is a nice bright white light that is very impressive looking compared to the stock yellow tinted lights. Your interior is going to seem pretty bright until you get used to it so be prepared, lol.
Yesterday received a few bulbs in the mail as some are still on back order.
Domes went in fine.
Cargos are a bit bigger, so it's a little difficult to switch them off and on. But since they're always on - I don't really care.
Vanity - perfect fit. The only problem I have, is that they seem to be flickering... Can someone please explain why they do this and if/how it could be fixed?
Overall, I can't say I love the look... Not that I liked the old bulbs better... I mean. I'll have to see it at night to get a better understanding of the difference.
P.S. Reading lights I ordered are the wrong type, so I'll have to return these and get the correct ones.
License plate, glove box, courtesy and backup bulbs are all on back order, so waiting...
Once everything is done I'll post a few pics, will make a list of the bulbs that went in and were perfect fit and my impressions.

Taking my unimpressed statement back. Lights look absolutely gorgeous in the dark! And visibility is great too!
Now I can't wait for the rest to arrive!
In regards to vanity mirrors, could it be that the bulbs not tight in there?
Captn - that kit looks pretty nice. Is it relatively easy to put in? Just essentially swap out the stock bulbs for the LED bulbs? I assume the kit has adapters for the bulbs?
It's something I might want to do, but being as mechanically declined as I am, figured I'd ask before I sent myself into a world of hurt

all bulbs are direct fit.
just make sure you unplug your battery before swapping out to avoid blowing a fuse.

Yup swap mode, get a pair of long nose plyer for the trunks and you will be fine!
All of my interior lights went out as I was changing the courtesy lights for leds... Stupid me, didn't unplug and used screw driver to pop the old bulb out...
Fused was changed... Couldn't get the back up lights sockets out... As it has been mentioned before - "tiny hands required". Any advice on how to get them out if no tiny hands available? Thanks
