Re: DarkSouljur's Build Thread
Lol make me your guinea pig why don't ya. Well i'm leaving for New York on Monday for a week, so i might order them tomorrow and hope that they don't come in till I'm back, but I'll definitely do it then post results. I'm not sure but i think shift-e wanted to do it to and if that's the case we'll probably do it together.

Re: DarkSouljur's Build Thread
Just ordered the LEDs, but 2 weeks because they're coming from china 
Lopes if you want to order them in the next couple days we'd be waiting 2 weeks for them anyways and i'll let you know what they're like after install, that way you don't have to wait 2 weeks if you like the outcome... but if you don't like the outcome then they're only $1 so you're not really breaking the bank and you could use them anywhere else in the car really.

@ kenny, I did not mean my last post after yours to be rude, i just re read it and it seemed pretty rude and blunt. I apologize
EDIT: OK, just bought a pair of the T10s as well, the last ones linked. 1.79, cant go wrong. They wouldnt fit in the maplight would they? the same ones?

Nice car! im really liking the eyebrows i kinda want one now for my car
im also against the black rims polished finish.. you'll see that they eventually chip and crack and look cheap. i fell in love with my interior led lighting when i changed it on my sedan. everything's brighter and lively-er

Glad you ordered some lopes! And yeah i'm planning on doing all LED interior the yellow lights aren't doing it for me anymore lol.
Yeah i get compliments on the eyebrows left and right, it was definitely a good buy in my eyes and i'd recommend them to anyone! As for rims i think i'd go with matte over shiny polished ones but i don't know, i haven't even really looked into rims at all

I am just confused, I do not see how those lights will fit in the map lights.. Is he saying that they use the same bulb?

They're not the same bulb
But they use the same T10 wedge
Imagine if you will, a standard household socket lightbulb, now imagine the energy saving coiled lights, they have the same ends, different bulbs
Same concept here
