They do look damned good....and was wondering where to get them and if they are capable of dimming?
Thanks,

That could look very interesting when you switch on Dynamic Mode and everything else turns red.

Oh well, doesn't ship to the USA. Thanks though, and looked very nice in your vehicle.
Have a great rest of week!

Just search for T10 LED on Ebay (assuming the link given in the thread is correct) - there are dozens of them, white, red, blue etc etc

Interesting - I looked here (4 x T10 W5W 2825 192 194 168 501 Car 20 SMD Red LED Side Wedge Light Bulb 12V | eBay) for T10 red led and the measurements provided don't seem to match that of the bulb I pulled out from my car's passenger side footwell. It says W5W4 T2.
Are you sure the ones in the link I pasted will fit?

Looks great.

I've amended your thread title from L.e.d. to LED to help anyone searching for this information.

Got them and installed! They are actually a little more brighter than what is shown in the pic. But nowhere compared to what Trance has. They were too cheap in my opinion and I don't see them lasting. I got what I paid for ($5 for 4 bulbs) though - have two extras and will find other spots to plug these in.

Yes I looked at them ones , I was unsure when ordering mine so I just went for the most expensive and the highest wattage.

I still think yours look good though. Do they dim when they should?

LEDs should last a long time (100K hours?). Red are probably going to be the dimmest, white and blue the brightest.

Yes they do. Functionally they are fine - I was just expecting them to be much brighter.
