Default 2011 Interior LED help!

First I would like to say that I spent all last night searching for this information and I could not find much information at all. I know that there was a very detailed thread on this a few months back but I could not find it. I was able to do some research and found the following results.

I want to change the interior map lights and dome lights to LED. I have the sunroof so I know that the types of bulbs change a bit. So far, I have found that I will need a http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm...olesalers.html for the dome light and 2 http://www.aliexpress.com/product-fm...olesalers.html for the map lights.

I absolutely hate that website. It makes you buy multiple bulbs and the shipping is up to 40 days. I was hoping to get some better websites and exact bulbs if possible to replace my 2 map lights and overhead dome light with sunroof.

Also, I would like to replace my exterior mirror lights with LEDs. Does anybody know the bulb number for these as well?

Thank yall for the help

I got mine from superbrightleds.com
Some people use vleds.com. I believe the first I listed actually tells u which LEDs go where once u choose ur vehicle.

Check out my thread and read through the pages, I list all the part numbers and prices for each bulb from superbrightleds.com. Great customer service and some of the best LEDs around, most all bulbs from them arent polarity sensitive so you wont burn these out by putting them in the wrong way either!

Heres my other thread for all my other LEDs I changed in my truck

Good luck and pm if you need more help!

Tuxedo, I just found your thread. I found the dome light and added it to my cart. I cannot find the front 2 map lights. I do not have the rear reading lights so I dont have to worry about those. Do you happen to remember the part #?

Also, I cannot figure out how to remove the front map lights. I tried twisting and pulling but I am scared that I will break them. Does anybody know what method (twisting or pulling) works? Any advice? Thanks!

Superbright has the WLED-xHP15-TAC listed as the front map light bulb. Do you know if the much larger WLED-WHP18-TAC or WLED-xHP13-T will fit? They are listed as much brighter and with only have those 3 bulbs for the entire truck, any extra light would be nice. Thanks!

No the whp18's wont fit, I had to modify the thrid brake light to fit those 18's in there, but were worth it since they are really bright! You are correct on the WLED-xHP15-TAC's they are the bulbs I used in my front map lights. Superbrights website was messed up last time I looked because it showed the 18's for the description of the 15's. I also pmed you back.
