Nice. If you have time can you take some pictures and write up a DIY procedure for dummies? lol

I just took out most of the lights in the wifes car and will be ordering me some LEDs! Maybe I'll get a HID fog light kit as well so I can copy you...hehehehe

Haha I def. will if I uh.. do it myself, but I'm lazy and not a handy person, so I might take it to someone to install.

nice. I hear you. Do you mind sending me the link of what you purchased? Part numbers, etc. would be helpful too! I went ahead and ordered some ultra blue LEDs from JDM. I'll take some pics once installed. I went the easy route. Plug and play, no adapters, etc. Probably won't be as nice as yours but at least they will work hopefully. Talk at you.

There been a lot of discussion on the fog lights....you may have to drop the bumper cover to change them out.

Nice lol I did run across some threads discussing this so if/when I get there I'll re-visit them. Can't wait for the interior Led's to come in. I'll post some pics if they turn out ok. lol

Could I use these for the footweel lamps? Description says dash light but it says it would fit '37'.

Also the link on Ebay, that's coming from Hong Kong. Free shippin would take 21 business days!!! how are you guys ordering it? paying premium for expedited shipping?
