What size? You can find 194/168 bulb type covers at Autozone and Pep Boys...

Thanks! I'll check down the rice isle. They're probably right next to the "Powered By APC" seatbelt pads.... I just must have missed them!

i dont like those covers, when they get hot, they will stick on the light bulbs...

why not just get the colored bulbs?

What about these?



go to the bottom of this page:

http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...e/commerce.cgi

and see if that is the right one... It sure looks like the ones that twist-lock into the A/C controls. Anyone willing to try a pair and see?

So i checked out autozone today and they only had the big momma sized ones and dome ligh sleeves. I bough the domelight sleeves and tried it out as per the FAQ but it didnt work. Waste of $1.49. Someday I'll find these damned things!

return those sleeves and get the 194 covers... Put them in the "fiber optic" domes and you'll be set...
