LED bulbs for the map lights

stillageek · Apr 21, 2008

So I just can't stop tinkering with my 5. I ordered some LED bulbs from superbrightleds.com. The bulbs for the overhead and cargo lights fit fine. I bought 9 LED bulbs for the map lights. They are too big! They won't fit through the holes. Anyone have LED bulbs? What's the most that will fit?

I just went with the single LED that they offer on the 194 wedge base. You might want to measure the opening and then call them about what will fit. They are very knowledgeable and also very helpful in my experience. PS if you get the LED turn signal bulbs get a set of the load resistors at the same time your turn signals won't work correctly without them.

Are the single LED bulbs bright enough?

They are plenty bright enough for me, they illuminate the same area as the regular bulbs but the light is more pure white and less yellow. If you are looking to sear your retinas you will want the multi-LED option.
