Thats what you call good timing. lol The only thing left on my truck to change are the lights in the reflectos and the red third brake light.

Is the third brake light a red or clear bulb? i know its a 194 im just to lazy and its to hot to go look.

I just got mine and installed them but of course it's bright daylight. Tonight when I get up for work I'll take some pictures.

It's been like "forever" since I posted on here so I hope I'm not asking a redundant question here but which online retailer scores the highest marks with you guys? I want to swap out all interior lights as well as the license plate lights on my 04 Supercrew

Got them installed. Can't wait to see them tonight. In the daylight, it looks the dome light is substantially brighter than the map lights. Right now, it looks like the dome will be plenty bright. So far, I'm thoroughly impressed!

I tried superbrightleds.com (bad results), Autolumination(not bad), and V-Leds

V-LEDS by far more superior!

I have always looked at v-leds as overpriced but being as I just finally placed my first order and received my items within 48 hours, inspected and installed I can honestly say you get what you pay for.

Excellent quality and a pleasure ordering. I wouldn't order from any other source now if I can just get an understanding on which bulbs guys are using for license plates I'd place another order.

My camera took a dump, so no pics tonight. The LEDs are awesome. The dome light is rediculously bright. It looks to be 25-30% brighter than the map lights. If the 20 and 36er produce an equal amount of light per LED, I'd need sunglasses when getting in or out of the truck at night. I'd highly recommend the 4 high power to anyone looking for a replacement for the other options mentioned earlier.

Don't know if anyone else had a problem with the license plate lights, but I installed the v-led (194_6_FA_W) and fried the fuse after partially melting the plastic bulb connectors. I put the stock bulbs back and thankfully they still work, so not sure what to do at this point. From the looks of things the fuse saved me from more serious wire damage as the bulb housings are both partially melted. Is the the same 6 light LED others have used? Anyone else have success with a different led for the rear plate?

Dirk, I bought the same Leds from V-Led.com (194_6_FA_6K)and installed them in my liscense plate lights and instantly blew the fuse. I returned them and listed the problem, they sent me an email saying they would let me know what the issue was. But they ended up just sending out new ones, I haven't tried them yet.
