its gonna be all Blue relayed to a switch on the center console.
Is the site super bright leds trustworthy??? whats the delay for shipping ???
For the PRND123 I think I'd go with twist ons... unless normal LEDs arn't much harder to install...

just get
 (it has 4 leds on the sides and one in the middle.) its available in their store.
and be done with it. adding leds takes alot more work. You gotta prevent shorting... hide leads/wires. pain in the ass.
yank the bulb out (can push from the bottom with a small screwdriver and the bulb pops outta the holder) and replace it with the one from superbrightleds, that i posted. |

Not tremendously. More tedious... Like any led work.
Pretty sure I had a thread for that, too

Used a dremel.... It was the tedious part.
I cut the symbol out of a sheet of paper, used that as a template, painted the symbol on it, then cut the painted part. Filled it with epoxy after. |

Yes,all them too. Keep in mind, hid is the best for headlights. Don't waste your money on the led ones.
I'm curious to see if the led versions are as bright as the halogens... I'm guessing, no

And with led headlights, I fear the led's ability to project...long distance
