I got
2x WLED-WHP Pure White High Power LED for the license plate bulbs.
3x 3022 x9 LED Festoon Bulbs for the dome and map bulbs
1x WLED x5 LED Wide Angle for the trunk.

dunno man, those ebay ones are pretty solid, and inexpensive ya know. I got them and they look great..super bright on the plate and i feel they light up the inside IMO but some say its not bright enuff for the interior. If you do decide to go with the Ebay path, buy they from Warren_JP something like that but hes got them all. i spent like $23 shipped on the trunk lights, two map lights and a dome light.

Or add your credit card to PayPal? That's what I did...

Anyways, I just ordered from the guy on there...I accidentally bid on the wrong thing and wanted to see if he'd let me swap out, but it was a no go. I'm guessing he's Hong Kong-nese and didn't quite understand my question though. But either way, he discounted what I did buy so it works out despite the LED not being the one I really wanted. I got all SMT LEDs for dome, trunk, and plates. Didn't do the maps cause I got LX and they don't turn on.

Honestly IMO, I think they give off just a little more light than the stocks, but definitely looks better than that yellowish color. Im happy with my buy, but people have they're own opinion.

It lights a lot more than stock and it's got a blue tinge to it. I like it better, but it's a personal taste for everyone.
