Default pics of my cars LED's and HID's

Here are all the lighting pics of my car. I have added white LED's to the license plate, headlights, and both rear dome lights. I still need to add one to the front dome light above the dash. I also added blue LED's under my dash. As far as HID's go, I swapped out the stock bulbs for the 8000K bulbs. Let me know if you have questions and I need help on removing the housing for my front dash dome light.

Rear Dome Light, kinda dark, but you can kinda get a sense of the color

I do not know what brand the LED's are. I bought them in bulk on ebay from china. They all seem pretty much the same to me. The license plate frame was bought at target. It is just a chrome frame with a plastic cover.

Replace the bulb with a blue LED. very simple. the old bulb pulls right out and the new bulb slides right in. Look under your dash and you will see the bulbs.

The size is universal. The same bulb is 194, 168, t10, they are all the same. I actually think LED's take less power than standard bulbs, there shoudlnt be any circut shortages.

Clean car, but I'd get rid of the port holes[:@]

Ya, I thought about removing them, but they are kind of permanent now.
