i was looking on the v-led thread and found that the parking lights/door/map lights were all sold out. so i use the fitment guide on v-leds and come up with the code and choose these http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...-p8194095.html
and http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/G...-p8804828.html but they have led's lighting forward and to the sides. are these bulbs appropriate for parking door and map? will they waste more electricity than necessary?

 

Those will work for the door and parking just fine, although they won't be as bright as the ones that use the high power LEDs. I actually used those before they came out with the high power bulbs. Those probably won't fit in the map light though, that location requires a smaller bulb. What color do you want for the maps? If you want blue, these will probably work:

thank you those are the forward ones i was looking for. now i understand how to use v=led's reference chart. but with the 13 led ones as parking lights, since they don't have a heat sink, will they be able to dissipate enough heat to run continuously and inside such a small space?

 

The non-high power LEDs generate almost no heat, you should be find. I will say that the high power bulbs are well worth the wait though.

 

yea the high power ones look awesome in your thread. thanks for your help!
