INFO : which LED to buy !!!! - the big write up / review
So... i seen so many ppl asking which LED to buy for the headlights, domes, etc.
i tried them all! ( ok maybe not all, but most of them) So here is a write up which one you should get:
info: okay.. i only bought leds from superbrighleds.com so far.. so there is another 300 leds out there on different sites, like ebay... BUT!!!!! You will find EVERYTHING here what you need for your tc... parking lights, license plate lights, trunk and dome lights and cubby hole. And even if you get something from ebay.. it might burn out fast.. or the color could be different... i had a color problem too.. just read further and you will see.
Im pretty sure that you will be happy with those leds what i recommend but it is possible that you will have a different experience with them!
T13-x6 Wedge Base LED bulb
white one was okay, not super white but i did really like it until i bought the 12 led one :D
--------------------------------
921-x9 Wedge Base LED bulb
it was pretty bright
but the blue is not royal blue... its greenish blue!! [ but there is a festoon bulb which has the same greenish-blue color!! so if you want to get this, match it with that festoon bulb ( for the rear dome) scroll down and to find that feston bulb
------------------------------------------
WLED 1-LED bulb (WLED-x-x LED bulb - i think they renamed it)
i bought these for the licesne plate because this led has a 180degree of viewing angle.
BUT. the white is not white-WHITE.. its blueish-white and not really bright.... and this one was working for months! (it was harder to see my license plate with this one [ because this one is not that bright] but in the other hand you might want to get something just like this, if you know what i mean ;) [ i had no problems with the cops]
-----------------------------------------
WLED 5-LED Wide Angle LED bulb
Bright and the color is perfect ( blue, green and white) .
Best and brightest for the headlights (parking lights)! But when i installed them in the license plate they started to flicker.. i used 4 of them.. all of them started to flicker back there... i dont know why. Maybe it would work perfect in your car.
so maybe not for the license plate but for the headlights this one is the best!
---------------------------
WLED 6-LED bulb
not super bright but its okay, white and blue has good color
------------------------------
3022-x4 LED Festoon bulb
the fittment is so-so.. a little bit tight...
i ordered this for the rear dome and trunk.. the color (blue) is perfect (royal blue... not greenish)
i recommend this for the rear dome and trunk!
-------------------------------
3022-x9 LED Festoon bulb
i tought this is gonna be rock.. but not. bright-bright but the blue one is greenish
so if u buy this one, get the 921-x9 Wedge Base LED bulb because they have the same greenish-blue color but dont mix it with anything else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-------------------------
921-x12 Wedge Base LED bulb
THE WHITE and BLUE IS PERFECT!!! BRIGHT AS HELL!!!!
This is the one what u need for the front dome lights! white is superwhite and the blue is royal blue
buy this and the 3022-x4 LED Festoon bulb to get the same blue ( royal blue) color
get it in any other color ( red, green ,etc) im pretty sure all color is perfect, but always match it with the 3022-x4 led festoon bulb!
--------------------------
cubby lights ( the lights below your A/C control , above the cigarette lighter....)
74 Wedge Base LED bulb
i got the blue one and its royal blue!!! so its perfect!
to install this you need to remove the center console...
----------------------------
WLED-xHP6 Wedge Base Bulb
only got the white one and so far this is the best for the license plate
VERY bright and the cool white is really white-white! ( not blueish or yellowish)
no flickering yet i hope it will stay like this because i love it so far!
looks really tight!
[ djspectre told me that this leds didnt fit in his 08 headlights !! (??) i dont know why or how.... i only used the 5 led one in the 08 headlight and that was working!]
so... this is it.
i didnt get these yet but i would try them:
------------
74-xHP3 Wedge Base LED bulb
it must be super bright for the cubby whole, but to be honest the other one is pretty enough for me.
white and blue only!
-------------
High Power 2-LED Festoon bulb
this one comes only white.... it could be brighter than the other ones, i dont know....
i hope u guys enjoyed me review
i didnt do any how to install write up.. but soon.... maybe!

You pretty much only reviewed the ones from the same site. Try Oznium's 194 bulbs for the running lights/backup bulbs/license plates, then the superflux dome lights for the interior. You'll be blown away.

i dont get it.. what do you mean by this:
"reviewed the ones from the same site"
i dont really understand what do you wanna say with this...
the 12 led one is UBERBRIGHT!!!! i cant look at it because i will see a spot where i look.. so why would i need the oznium one which cost two or three times more?
if you have a 100 dollars only for the leds then go for it.. put 200 led inside your car.. i have 3 of that 12 leds on the front and they are more than enough!
im telling you: i have to switch it off because i cant see out thru the windshield/windows, its BRIGHT!
update: i was reading oznium.com
lots of ppl crying because the leds burning out in that 16-25 led module... so it must be killer bright but thanks no... get the 12 leds... they will work foerever! and they are much cheaper!

well.. someone else said he's leds started to flicker in the headlights.. well.. then.. i think there was a few 5led ones which was from a bad "series"
or something.. and maybe thats what i used for the license plate and thats what he used for hes headlights and they all flickered.............
then ones what i ordered lately working without any problem but i still didnt try them back there.. only for the headlights.

and what is the driving lights socket?

Meant parking lights by driving lights. But you only reviewed the LEDs from a single site. More than one place sells LEDs. Have you checked out autolumination.com? Even eBay has some very good bulbs if you know what you're looking at. Just saying don't lead people into thinking these are there only decent options.

Reviewer: Warren Whiteford (Citrus Heights, CA)
they looked really good for about a month until my headlights melted them"
i didnt said this yet but, you guys gotta know that i made this review for helping you out.... i just wrote down what i experienced with these leds..
even if you get the same leds what i have .. yours might burn out faster...

you can find ALL the leds here what you need for the tc.....
and even if you go to ebay or any other site to buy leds.. those leds could be bright enough but the color could be different or not good... like the blue and greenish blue situation............
i reviewed what i used... if you guys want leds in your car, you can find here what you will need for the exterior and interior...
and i might put this in the first post..........

oh btw,, when i had the old oznium HID's these 5 leds one burned out faster.. now i have a different oznium hid kit and evertything is cool.

yeah i know... i got the new one after they stopped selling them.. but they gave anyway me because of the warranty
only mistake they made is they gave me 8 k instead of 6...
