so, I got some blue "LED bulbs" from Pep Boys. They were cheap and now I think I know why- I used them to replace the bulbs by your feet (the kick plates) and they're ok- they light up nice and blue in the dark like they're supposed to. I liked them so I got a second back (packs of 2) and replaced the bulb in the trunk for the hell of it. This didn't light up AT ALL... it didn't make a difference. it makes sense- larger space to light up and all. So i MIGHT get an LED strip instead just for convenience. I know, you think I'm nuts for trying to put LED's in the TRUNK of all places...
This afternoon I took the LED out of the trunk, grabbed the other and put it in the reading lamp slots in the mirror- once the sun goes down I'll see how this works but I held my hand over it and so far, I don't think it'll be too bright.
I forgot that the overhead Interior light wasn't just a regular bulb (idiot) so I'll be going back to get an LED that fits.
Any tips you guys have for me in terms of brightness? Thanks!
