thats true, i just feel like the round led bulb would be better, but i guess that would make the housing hot. my angled ones dont point out of the housing its in , more like up at a 45 degree angle.

I would have been all over that half off sale if I didn't already convert everything.

Yep they are the angled ones. The right one points a little up and the left one a little down, but they are so much brighter than stock, it doesn't really matter.

Its these ones with 6 LEDs

I still bought more even though my truck is completely converted too.

I wish I only had about $80 in LEDs inside and out. Even with the last 50% off sale I still spent another $180.

The 50% off sale is over, they typically only last a couple of minutes. They claim there are going to be more coming up though. Become a fan of their Facebook for the most up to date promo codes.

I believe the first one was for 10 minutes and the second chance was for 2 minutes.

Vleds Dome lights can cause remote range reduction due to interference from the LED. I have the issue, but I'm gonna live with it.

I noticed it too. I also noticed when I turn my domes on so i can see what I am doing inside the truck at 4:30am the FM radio reception dies and gets high static, when I turn the domes off ( out, not all the way to the off click position ) reception comes back. Damn there is a downside to the LEDs.

The downside is in the way the VLED bulb is deisgned. Superbrightleds use a different circuit design and I don't have ANY issues with remote reception.

I have no radio interference, or remote reception problems. I am however using the old style 20 LED dome. Oh, and I am using a Clifford alarm, so I am not sure about my Ford fob. I might have to give it a try and see if I have issues.
