Default My New Lighting Mod :P

Okay well I just got done installing my Map lights, X2 dome lights, and my License Plate Lights. Please tell me what you think!!

If you want information on these LED bulbs please ask

A big Thanks to JLevistreetwerks for their awesome lights












And heres the License Plate Lights.....as you can see the LEDS are soo bright that it actually casts a shadow of the bumper on the ground which I think is totally radical ahahah....Sorry for the crappy camera shots but believe me its pretty bright it just looks dim with this camera.





See the shadow.... ?









And heres a pic from the bottom looking up into the lights

Looks good Richie.
We'll swap out your blue for white soon when we get the new bulbs in!

The map lights are not as blue as they appear either you can blame my crappy camera for that. In fact their more of a Xenon white with a hint of blue.

Blue lights anywhere on the outside of your vehicle is just asking for a ticket

I quote this from my cousin a police officer

u dont even need plyers. i popped off the panels inside the hatch and twisted the input socket with my hand.

there is also a write up about the interior dome lights with link to where I got them. they can also be found else where.

I'm a very weak person I needed the extra torque, Thats the guide I used

I really like how the new lights reflect off anything thats pretty reflective in the car like the Center Console for example, its just freaking amazing, I just can't imagine how it will look once I get my aluminum overlays :D
