Actually the pics don't do it justice. You can see pretty good in the back i just want more in the front.The dome light has 8 LED's but the map lights only have 1 atm,but about to put one's w/ 5 LED's. One thing I do like about them is that people can't see you that well when you get in. Like the bright white one's do.

I always used a blue neon shift knob (disassembled) for my dome light. Worked great!

I suppose LEDs are far easier these days... Ya'll are spoiled!

Not sure haven't had time to look at them yet. Working 7 days a week doesn't give me much time to do anything

Ok went take out the gauge cluster to see what kind of bulbs etc...
fairly easy 5 screws and it comes out.Thought woohoo that was easy WRONG! Just cant get it all the way out because of the freakin wire harness connected to the back.Cant get my hand around it to disconnect it.
I'll update when i figure it out and have pictures to show for it.
