Great job on the grill

Default Interior LEDs

Since I'm happy with the Park/Turn/Stop lights I got from http://www.superbrightleds.com I dropped another $30 and bought two map lights, the dome light, and the license plate lights. Installed the interior bulbs on friday night but it's been too cold to crawl under the truck and do the license plate bulbs.

Map and License plate are the same:

Festoon bulb for the dome light:
https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...oon/1264/2937/







Man those suckers are bright.

Also picked up a Uniden CB on friday, but that's for the $100+ Mod Thread.

For tail lights and/or turn lights, did you need to replace the flashers in order for the low current LEDs to work?

Go to amazon and search for "jdm astar 800". The 921 bulb in xenon white is the one you want.

I searched all over the place and I couldn't find a definitive answer on the resistors vs relay vs PCM flash debate to fix hyper-flash. The owners manual for 2010 doesn't list a turn signal relay anyway (except for the trailer package), but I did try these from Amazon:

2 Pcs T25 3156 3356 3357 Error Free Load Led Resistors Decoder Wiring: Amazon.ca: Automotive 2 Pcs T25 3156 3356 3357 Error Free Load Led Resistors Decoder Wiring: Amazon.ca: Automotive

and they didn't work either. So I suffer with hyperflash. But I have some bitchin LED lights.
