All Interior LED's Swapped for SuperBlue's and a Footwell Kit

Changed:
  • LED Light Set (Doors)
  • LED Light Set (Dome)
  • LED Map Light Set
  • LED Glove Box Light
  • LED Trunk Light
  • LED License Plate
  • LED Footwell Lighting Kit

PS The oil change is on hold until my qwik valve Fumoto oil plug valve arrives.
Thanks to mysql101 for that one.

Can you bump the ISO up on your camera manually? I'm not a big fan of LEDs in the interior - they just seem not to put out enough light.

I've got the doors and dome from rx8strakes.... and they put out a ton. Esp the LED's in the door. They will light up the car and ground around it when the doors are open.

Would have to agree, they put out a lot more light than the stock. Also the added footwells add a bunch more light.

They provide enough light to get in and out of the car safely at night. I kept the map lights white so if I really need to see something I still have those.

i did the same thing, except all my lights are red. EXCEPT for the vanity mirror lights (yeah i changed those too lol...) those are white LEDs for when i really need to see at night.

only problem is if you try to use the vanity mirror at night, you basically get blinded by the super bright white LEDs
