DIY Interior lights to LEDs
8 Attachment(s)
So a member asked me to do a simple write up on how to change the Interior lights to LEDs.
First are the bulbs: the map lights are 194, so for LEDs any will work as long as they are 194 replacements. below is what i used. DDM Tuning: HID and LED Lighting the rear over head light and the trunk are both 5050 festoon 31mm bulbs. DDM Tuning: HID and LED Lighting now for the steps: to go the map lights and the rear over head one are the same steps just different bulbs. Attachment 22172 us a tiny flathead screw driver and lightly push it it and prey the plastic to slide out. there are two spots, do to each spot before pulling out. Attachment 22173 Attachment 22174 after you have preyed it out a little you can use your fingers to slowly pull it out. Attachment 22175 then just pull out the old bulbs and slide the new in. (note: you might have to prey the prongs of the LED base on both sides before sliding it in to make contact, only do if the bulb will not light up.) Attachment 22176 this is just one side of what i mean. now the trunk use your tiny flat head again in this spot to slowing prey out the light, if you are doing it right it will pop out easy. Attachment 22177 now unplug it Attachment 22178 the tanish color plastic you have to just pop each of the four corners off to get to the bulb 42DA0E64-E56C-42BB-8932-27B6ECCD9AC1_zpsxqqjgaxh.jpg Photo by ragingskydragon | Photobucket now switch bulbs with the Festoon one Attachment 22179 If anyone has questions feel free to ask, or if you want to know for another bulb on the 2014 feel free, i might have changed it and if not i can try to find out. |

Go with the CREE type because they shoot a crazy amount of light even in one direction
