Rep Power: 0 why not look at the original LED's... or, plug them in to a source with variable voltage and then compare brightnesses... or you could get brighter ones....
if you have no source with variable brightness, use home batteries and wire them together to create different voltages...
i have no formal automotive or electrical education, but i make up lotsa theories, and sometimes theyre right =)

Rep Power: 0 Hey, I feel your frustration... Nobody seems to know the difference between the condom lights and LEDS... but, You're in luck. I did the mod already, and someone was nice enough to host the faq.

Rep Power: 0 yah i was thinking of the same thing for my dash lights. the bottom lights seem a little too bright 
, do they bother you when u drive at night Ocelaris????
still looks better than the stock orange lights though

Rep Power: 0 The thing about the bottom lights, the icons are perfectly fine, but the "light" that turns on when you push the buttons, are probably too bright... not too bright, just that they're directional... the lenses inside the button actually aim the light directly at the driver; there's just never been enough light to make it matter... So I reccomend either roughing up (or flattening) the spherical top of the LED, or encasing it in hot glue to diffuse the light, that should be sufficient.
