any recommendations?

What don't you like about them?

I thought LED's were the shizzle...

What's the issue?

yeah me too.. seemed too dim. took some pics but i dont have them with me. maybe its just that the light is concentrated in one area and not as difussed.

whats wrong with stock...

i got a led dome light from oznium.com . http://www.oznium.com/led-dome
that site has a lot of great led stuff. their very bright and i only got the small board. now im replacing the reverse lights and license plate lights from here http://www.ledlight.com/LZAuto.aspx i get them tuesday so ill let you know how bright they are. i also noticed that their more of a focused light but its bright enough that it doesnt bother me.

just wanted something as bright as my led flashlight (pelican 7060)

I did a nine smt led festoon bulb http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/prod...roducts_id=344 for the rear and two nine smt led 194 bulbs for the front lights http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/prod...roducts_id=348 and have not only been happy with them, but get asked often about where I got them from.

yea i coulda told you they would suck but i thought you alrady knew :devil:
http://www.putco.com/product/Universal_Dome_Light/ these are the shiz nizl you should check them out I have them in my truck there so bright it hurts I got them for 50 a set you wont be disapointed with these i promise

i have the chip leds shown in your bottom picture...i got them from vleds.com or frickinbrite.com same company....they work great for me...

I have 1 of the ones in your bottom pic and its cool for me. As far the front goes, I went with the WLED-WHP LED Wedge Base Bulbs from superbrightleds.com. Check out this bulb.

when we put these in edward's truck we rewired the fixture. when he opens the door all three of the lights, Dome and both maps come on. Compensates for them seeming a little dimmer. (Extended cab)

Anyone have any before and after in the dark pics with this mod?

not the best pics but...
