The Dome Light I purchased isn't available through them now. It was the 20 LED version.


This seems to be the new choice dome light.

Front Turn Signals (Switchbacks)

If you are switching out your signal bulbs to LEDs you may need to install a new flasher. I picked up mine at my local Pep Boys.

Hope this helps anyone.

I got my map and dome lights in today. I'm very pleased with the results. However the License Plate lights (194_2_BHPF_W_6K) didn't fit. They were too long. Guess I'm out a few bucks, but it was worth it.

Try again buddy, they fit, you just need to give them a little oomph to get them to fit. I'm running them as is rednoved. Unless... do you have the heritage style 2004 by any chance?

Is anyone using these for license plate lights?

I think someone said they were but I can't remember. Should be a bit brighter than the single LED version above.

They should be brighter. Probably 4x as bright. I ordered the single LED because the lense on my truck isn't big enough to let all the LEDs shine through, so they would just be wasted. On my truck, the single centered LED lines up perfect.

If you still have 194_2_BHPF_W_6K style, measure it to compare to the new set you are about to order. The 194_2_BHPF_W_6K doesn't have the size info on the page, but the 194_4_HPF_W_5K that you linked to does. They are 27mm long from top to bottom and 10mm wide. If you are having fitment issues with the one we are using, make sure this new one is smaller.

BTW. The new one you linked to is a different color rating. It is 5K, and the previous is 6K. Not sure if you wanted it that way, but thought I would point it out.
Here is a link to the 6K version. http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...68086-1-2.html

No my truck is not the heritage. Thats why I was surprised that they wouldn't fit. I wonder if they made any changes from 04 to 05 as far as the LP lights are concerned?

'97+ is all the same, you'll need a small 5 - 6 LED bulb, or a bright flank board LED bulb, #194.

So I got the same LP lights as Carolinaboy (6 LED), but they keep blowing fuse #6. The fuse also goes to the tail lights and I have the LED tails, could that be causing any problems? Everything works fine with the stock bulbs.

Also got some pics. The 4 LED dome is a little bluer then the map lights.
map --> dome--> Stock
White balance was off a little, not as blue in person

Better color of the map lights

I haven't bought the flank style ones yet. I previously bought a 5 LED SMT version and it was too big for the housing. No problem since they fit fine in my map lights. I definitely want the 5K versions, since I prefer pure white to blue/white.

so for license plate bulbs, what would you pick?:

1. http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...25900-1-2.html

2. http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...08401-1-2.html

3. http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...98419-1-2.html

Rear Dome Light: (don't think I have a 5K choice for this do I?)

http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...-p8200027.html

While we're at it, I could do the cargo's as well.....until I saw the price! wtf?

http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED/P...-p7526829.html

I appreciate the help. I'd like to order these while the newest discount code is still good.
