eh, i gave up on functionality when i did double limo window tint.

im just kidding. I really would like the white look. im going to redo my switches and dash with white eventually. As far as brightness goes, i want bright as physically possible without melting anything, causing problems.

leds put out little to no heat, they take little to no energy.. no risks involved

its been awhile since i ordered mine and i have no clue which ones i exactly ordered but it was all from V-Leds.

They are just as bright if not brighter than stock and look sweet

You can see the super bright square in the center if you look at it, but it looks great. Do you have the 3 bulb dome light like I have? I have a 24 led board in the center with the 9 led in the map lights. And I think sixes in the rear map lights (super crew) but I dont remember for sure.

Yea I have the same dome light in mine. I was just wonderig really how they shine differently and if you can tell it's the board. The only board ones I've seen in person look really cheap and you can tell they are a board
