Velocity LED's rock.
 
I have no affiliation with V-LED, I'm recommending them to you guys so you get a good product. I've purchased a number of LED's from them and they're always high quality with good prices. They also ship *insanely* fast and don't overcharge for it.

I've also purchased from auto/superlumination before and they're garbage. I'm hoping people will stop going to them. Their products are crap and a huge waste of money.

So, if you're in the market for LED's, make sure to check them out.

V-LED's website.
V-LED on ebay.

Hope this helps.

+1 with everything he said. v-leds>autolumination.

swoope 12-31-2006 12:13 AM

so the only thing they offer that would apply would be the 194leds?

note i have not had any problems with the autolumination, yet...

but only 194s.

beers :beer:

+2 I have their Hi-Power Led w/ aluminum heat shield and I love it. Hi quality and brighter than autolumination, plus great customer service. V-Leds pwns autolumination.

I agree, V-LEDS is great! Im glad they are located in WA. Got my bulbs the next day after I ordered them the morning before.

+3 on the V-LED goodness..

I just installed my 194's on the corners and day time driving lamps and they are nice, I bought the refractor style for all of them and they match my HID's almost identically. I couldnt be happier.

I will post pics, it looks sex with white.....

LiL BenNy 01-01-2007 01:10 PM

which ones are you guys buying? inverted cone..? wedge? high power flank?

correct me if im wrong... the map lights and side door lights are 194...? what is the read dome light?

FABRO 01-01-2007 01:38 PM

Parking Lights- 194 6-LED in SuperWhite
Door lights & Rear Trunk lights- 194 4-LED in Blue
Dome light- Super Blue 9-LED light.

Im really happy with my blue lighting interior, and have had may positive compliments about it. Also the parking lights look real nice, as soon as I get my camera to work again I'll try to post up some pics of it.

mikeschaefer 01-01-2007 02:16 PM

both my auto illumination hyper white leds burned out!

Still debating whether or not the regular yellow 194s in the front illuminate signs and what not better than hyper white. Most of the time form follows function for me

LiL BenNy 01-02-2007 12:23 AM

wats the size for the dome light

FABRO 01-02-2007 12:34 AM

dome light=3175. The one I listed from V-Leds will fit.

Velocity 01-12-2007 04:38 AM

I just recieved my 194 LEDs from v-leds.com

I love the "194 high power > HID white"

They absolutely look amazing! I put them in my map lights (what a PITA to replace!)

I replaced the lisence plate light with a "194 5 LED refractor > HID white" It looks better than before, but i wish there were two bulbs instead of one.

I also bought some blue LEDs, but didn't like how they looked anywhere. I ended up putting them on the door light (courtesy lights i think). Not bad but i plan on replacing them with the HID white color.

Now to install the HID white driving lights and the Hoen xenon match foglights and i'll be set.... :)

Good to hear about Velocity having decent products.

Using a rubber spatula to slide in and push the release clips for the overhead console might be the safest way to do it.

Velocity 01-23-2007 12:42 PM

Good idea. That was a pain to change those for sure. I just installed the high power "HID white" LEDs in the driving/accent lights. Looks a ton better and is a very close match to the stock 4300K HIDs.

Velocity 01-23-2007 12:45 PM

I also installed the dome light from v-leds. It has 9 small LEDs. The light has a nice color, but it mainly shines straight down. The spread needs to be better.

I have to admit though.... With the HID white dome light and two blue courtesy lights on the door, it looks pretty sweet when im entering/exiting the car! Futuristic or something... i like a lot :) !!!

I see 7443 LED bulbs on their site. Isn't that the bulb used in the tail lights?

NgoRX8 03-08-2007 01:12 PM

lol. this thread's back. yes 7440/7443 from v-leds works for all our 7440s. i currently have the red high power refractors 7440 from them for my rear turn signals.

FABRO 03-13-2007 03:02 PM

NGO, how are those rear turn signals doing for you? Are they flashing fast on you.

NgoRX8 03-13-2007 03:20 PM

i bought the load resistors so they work just fine. i think they flash a very tad bit quicker than it use to but not noticeable. the red led looks so much better than the red 'pinkish' polarg bulb and red stealth bulb (from autolumination) i had in there previously.

taylorscock 03-13-2007 03:24 PM

pictures...we want pictures!!!

krnxdoughboi 08-20-2007 01:59 AM

umm sry for asking, but which numbers (i.e. 194) are for which part of the car? just interior lights or exterior too?

NgoRX8 08-20-2007 11:24 AM

search it.
