Well as usual, all good things come to an end. I can't find them on their website anymore. They were 6000k 18 led triple towers.

Much appreciated
I havent done my "Cargo Light" but I have added Cargo Lights...Look at my pics, think I have them up, if not I'll have to add them.

But I didnt do my cargo light because I have a bed cover, however there is still no light in the bed. So, I found a set of 10, 3 LED strips that I placed on the inside of my bed and wired to a switch just inside my tailgate. I had to cut and add longer wire to make them fit where I wanted but MAN ARE THEY GREAT! Im sure they can be wired into the cab to come on with a switch in the cab as well but I'm perfectly happy with my switch in the bed. Below is what I have, there are many other options, but these work perfectly fine.

I know this is completely off topic Darren, but what is the major differences in the Shaker 500 compared to the premium audio (I don't remember the exact name) that was offered in 08s? I know I have a sub under my rear seat, and 6 or 8 speakers otherwise. Is it basically the same?

Were Shakers offered in the F150? I thought those were Mustang (and maybe other cars) specific. The Shaker 500 has no sub, where the Shaker 1000 does. Whether or not the speakers and/or head units from the premium audio and 1000 are different, I don't know. I'm inclined to say that the systems with subs send less power to the door speakers than those without a sub.

Just put in my 921's from autolumination. They're a little bluer than I hoped for, but they still look way better than that yellowish garbage... LEDs for the win

I just got mine put in my 2007 Supercab.

I ordered parts from Autolumination and they got here pretty fast even with the standard shipping.

I got:
  • Cargo lights - 921 - 18 LED Tower Bulb in 6K White
  • Map ights - 194 - SMT Tower II 9 LED
  • Dome light - 6418 - 9 LED "Dice" in Super White

I would say, overall, it is about the same brightness as the stock bulbs but the color is so much nicer.

Super happy with the mod, especially for how little it costs.

map light swap




Picked up some cheap leds from the flea market. Think I'll shop around for some better quality set now.

I am having a hard time finding a dome led that isn't so bright for my 07 Screw. My maps are awesome, but the damn dome in back is blinding bright. I want just a nice chill white led back there. I believe what I got was the 4 led hi output from vied. Are there any other options for a non rail truck with half the brightness in white. Whatcha guys think?

Thanks man. Went to retro and they do not have 192 for the 3rd light. They have 194. Trying to get the nice white with no blue. Had silver stars in there, better then stock and white, they started to melt the plastic.
