I have just ordered the amber sidemarker led bulbs(6 leds each bulb)) and dual filament red brake light led bulbs (24 leds each bulb)from ledtronics.com and will report with pictures and comparisons soon . I may need to get the front and rear turnsignals if all goes well.

I do not know the glovebox and rear license plate bulb sizes yet as I have not gotten a chance to look.

All hyper white interior bulbs have been installed and the brightness and color are quite "illuminating" to say the least, it is worth a try.


I'm happy to give advice as to removing lenses for bulb replacement if anybody needs.

It pains me to ask - why on earth do you know all that data?

Cheers.

AND i did the glovebox and turnsignals, too! hehe... here is another site for bulbs... kinda cheesy but good prices... replacing the dead 'yellow' with white helps alot doesn't it? Also makes it look way more prestigeous...<ul><li><a href="http://www.perfectr.com/lightbulb.htm">http://www.perfectr.com/lightbulb.htm</a</li></ul>

Hey griffinpup,

to give credit where credit is due, you were the inspiration for my bulb changes. a search revealed your info, and I ordered everything to the letter from Boyds motorsport. Although I found that the polarg dome lights that you had specified were a little on the short side and required more contact modification than I was comfortable with.I was able to take some measurements and find the polarg dome bulb that was a little longer.

thanks for being such a pioneer in ar modification, I hope to enjoy the ar modding experience for many moons to come!!

Most of the info was from an old post from griffinpup, and I just elaborated the details and had some trial and error.

hope it helps.

reasoning for the 'shortness' i believe is that they didn't make that size up to that point! hehe modding at its best... Thanks for the kind words, Just can't help not loving this car. As spoiled as it sounds, I've never had a new car more then a year... especially over 30,000miles. Here I am 3 years later! 8^) Same Karma to you my child... same karma to you... now go pass on the word, and send me money!
