Anyone Swap out interior lights for LEDs???

sumint · 03-23-2008, 08:01 PM

I'm looking to swap out the interior lights in my new DGM STi. I have done LEDs on past cars and really liked the look. Has anyone done an interior LED swap on an 08 STi yet? What/Where/$$ did you get your LEDs? What color did you use? I was wondering if trying to match the factory inteior red lighting would look good.

Any Pics? Any Suggestions?

Thanks!

There are actual LED bulbs that Subaru sells now for the interior. Just saw them on japanparts.com last week, but they are overly expensive.

What type of bulbs did you get? I would like to get some as well as some LED's for the reverse lights.

I had the center of the roof light LED in my Forester(3 rows of 5 leds) and just swapped it over to my STI.
SouthCoastperformance.com has them. They are local to me, bought in person a while back.

Wasn't a 100% fit though, but worked. I should take a picture one night.

Whats the big fuss about interior LED lights? Are we talking just the light in the center of the roof that turns on when the door opens and such?

My car...volunteered for a day.

I am very happy with these lights, fwiw. http://www.hspn.tv/?videoid=70&catid=14

Yup, mine was the dome light just to be more clear. Looked like the one in the video.
