my leds
Here's some pics of mine... first the interior:

That is using two 194 168 W5W 2825 SMT Tower from autolumination in the front two sockets and a 9 smt led 42mm festoon bulb from frickinbrite in the rear fixture.
Here's a shot for comparison with the map reader lights, on the left is the led and the right is the stock bulb. The led puts off a much more "white" light.

I also switched out my cargo lights in the third brake light fixture. Here's another comparison shot, with the led in the left and stock on the right. Again, much "whiter" light from the led. I used white 9 smt led 921 bulbs from frickinbrite for these.

And lastly, my license plate lights, I used white 6 led 194 bulbs from frickinbrite for these.

Overall I've been very satisfied with my led bulbs, and the guy running frickingbrite was super easy to work with when I had a problem with one of my orders. I get compliments and questions on where I got my bulbs more than anything else that anyone has ever said about my truck.

whats the difference between the 194 and the 921? as the measurements appear to be the same

and for the rear dome light
http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/prod...roducts_id=344

I basically have the same setup (bulbs) as fireman except (almost) all my bulbs are from autolumination (aka. superlumination) I have yet to do my license and front side parking lights. Although, my brake lights are from LEDTRONICS http://www.ledtronics.com/ds/aut3157/ and these two I have had for a good while (5+ yrs). Sorry to you guys waiting for my comparison from stock to LED. I can't find the stock festoon bulb and it has been cold and raining here. I will get the pics soon. I bought a tripod to get some clear pics so I can't wait to try it plus I have two more LED projects running! I'm gonna look like a Christmas tree soon!!! See more pics in my gallery.
