interior light options

[shimoto]

has anyone changed their interior lights (dome, door indicators, etc) to maybe a hyper white or something to that effect? a few of mine are beginning to dim so im thinking of replacing it with something different

our very own cpmike has a diy on how to replace all interior lights with any color LED. search around the apprearence forums.

i had put all hyper whites in my cousin's 91, but he sold it, and i don't have pics, sorry.

btw, don't do some wierd color bulbs (well its just a suggestion) because it'll look ricer. i think hyper white would suffice.

the doors, dome, and trunk light are all the same bulb. i forget the number.

it should just be a direct replacement bulb in a hyper white color right? no LED's or soldering needed?

I got bored one day, so I took the dome light out completely, and installed a 4 inch neon stick in there instead. the factory bulb holders gripped the stick and everything. It used to beat the the music but it's since broke, the microphone died or something, but yeah, I have a blue neon dome light, it looks pretty cool, doesn't really provide light or anything, but it looks good. I'm fixing the lighting problem later with a secret plan, but anyways, that is what I would do if you want to go that route.

my girl wanted green lights so i just bought some of those pilot bulb covers that were green, and it worked out pretty good

any one know where i can pick up hyper white replacement bulbs?

yuck keep away from neons, get hyper white thats what i got and there super bright and look mint,

Covers will burn out. The cover will actually melt to the bulb. The bulb also takes up a lot of useful light away.

My neon stick looks completely oem. I didn't have to cut anything to make it work. And I looks pretty damn cool.

you mean hyper whites will burn the cover?
