I just did this to my 2010 Scab and was amazed at the difference. I originally used a 3chip 5 led 194 for the front map lights, but was did not have the light output that i was looking for so i swapped them out for a 2watt 4 led that are aimed straight down and got exactly what i was looking for with the 4 led 578 festoon bulb in the rear. I ended up putting the other 194's in the license plate spot since i had no other use for them and was also impressed with the light output over the incandescent.
For the rear dome lights i used these: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED-B...-p9454129.html
The license plate i used these: http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED-B...-p9722412.html
and finally the front map lights i used these: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED-B...-p8761053.html
For the rear dome lights i used these: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED-B...-p9454129.html

and the 360 style 194 for the map like these so there is light reflecting of the reflective housing.

As long as you are happy though and they still function that is all that matters.

Those ones you used for the dome are fine but you really should have got the flank style angled 194 for the plate so the light is aimed at the plate like these.

I was actually really impressed by the bulbs I put in for the map lights. The light up the entire interior and match the light output of the rear map perfectly. It probably would have been cheaper to do the ones you put up there, but I'm happy with the outcome. Everyone who has gotten in my truck has commented how stupid bright it is

Looks good! I got all my interior LEDs installed last week. I got all dome lights, map lights, puddle lights, vanity lights, and I finished it off with switchbacks in the front. All in 6k.

Looks good, what part numbers did you use. The front should be teh same as my Expd, and rear look the same as well.

I had been planning on getting them b4 Christmas but had to wait till a paycheck dropped, ended up ordering them on the 1st...FOR $9.99 EACH!!!! It was great!!
Sorry to say they are back up to $16.99 each now...but well worth it!
The back ones seem a little loose and can cut out if you tap them (or if they move around on a bumpy road, idk only had them in a few hours), so i just pushed on the clips that hold them in and they are held tight.

I've been searching trying to find a way to change my 2011 puddle lights. I can't really find much information, but I think I read it's the same as my dome lights this true? Also, what led for the truck bed light as well? Thanks!
