Search around... I replaced mine with LEDs from superbrightleds.com, and I think they were a couple of bucks a piece -- same thing for the festoon bulbs on the overhead -- and they look great.

The bulbs WILL come off... you just need to keep pulling. Seriously though, they're straight pull-down... they're just awkward because of the size/shape and the placement.

 

they do come off just by pulling?? Are we talking about the same bulb here? It has one bulb per side and it gives off amberish output.

can you PLEASE provide me with the product info ?

 

I definetely have to take off the plastic piece. My fingers can't pull it off with that amount of space. I'll check it out again tomorrow when there's more light.

 

Well there are just so many bulbs in the car...

If you mean the ones by the footwells, they come off by pulling. If you have pudgy fingers, that's another story...

Sparq is the man... and search is your friend...

WLED 6-LED wedge bulbs... $3 a piece. You need one on each side and a couple of more if you're planning to replace your license plate lights too. I'll post pics of mine in a minute.

 

I guess I have pudgy fingers because when I put my in pointer and thumb, i have no space to move. I'm not interested in LEDs, just plain hyper white (blue colored bulb lense). So the bulbs by footwells, are they 194? Any tips on taking them off for a guy with pudgy fingers?

 

Who here has actually put in the LED Turn signals ( i have white )?? Have any problems? And did you use a resistor, or something to help the normal problems when using turn LED/s..? thanks.

 

I wouldn't change teh color of the turn signals. It's illegal to have non-amber colored bulbs. I was planning on doing this mod, but decided it's not worth getting pulled over for, especially here in the middle of PA where cops do pick on modded cars.

btw, i finished installing all the bulbs that i want in the interior and it's HOT HOT HOT!

 

What bulbs did you end up going with?

I hate this.....Every time I come on the board I see something cool and end up buying it. I'm running out of cash....LOL

Needless to say I just got my order from Superbrightleds.com 4 festoon in white for the map/dome lights 2 amber for the footwells and 2 white for the licence plate. looks hot!!! The only thing I would have changed is the ambers in the footwells to white.

and I'd like to shoot the person that designed to placement of the bulb in the passenger footwell.

Looks good, mine are Amber overhead front and back with Red front floors...

 

I just ordered blue dome bulbs from the for sale section, Link, stoked about changing them out.

Looking at doing the Step/Courtesy lights, and the trunk next.

Here's a good site that has all the bulb sizes listed: http://www.moodym.com/maxima/tech/maxbulbchart.html (Had it added to the sticky)

 

Actually they did come up with a parts sticky and they used my car!!!

Next time ask, actually totally cool with me...

 

Agreed! I actually pulled the socket through (or around, I forget) and taped, yes taped it in so it points straight down like the driver side...

 

I dont think I have actually seen/known about the maxs "daytime running light" can someone elaborate more on this thanx

 

Only the canadian models have "DRL" us here in the states dont

 

Is it that we just dont have a bulb in there or what?

 

I think the whole assembly is different... someone here from the Land of Oz posted a picture of his, it's a completely different headlight IIRC.

 

Just switched out my interior lights with blue leds I bought in the classified section, 6 LED bulbs. Really bright blue light. Looks nice.

 

Has anyone done the LED/display change in Atlanta? Definitely want to do it but don't want to head up north and don't know anyone that could handle it down here.

 

Anyone know what the bulb numbers are for the vanity mirror lights? I just cant seem to find them. Thanks!

 

i would like to know also.

 

Have you tried contacting a dealership or Nissan site. Pull one out and take it to an auto place, dude, answers are easy... Oh Sorry, no I don't have one...

 

I would guess 74 or T5

 

Did I get totally ignored on my LED in Atlanta question? Anybody hear me?

 

 

We got a few guys in MD/DC area to do.. Still a bit of a drive for you, but when we set a date to go down there I;ll let you know. You could always ship it to us.

 

Thanks GEC, I'll look at the shipping option as well.

 

Anyone who ordered their LEDs from Superbright,,,how long does it usually take from the time you order til the time the lights show up?

...I'm trying to gauge my order around vacation time


Just got the 06 Onyx SE last week. I now know what true love is!!!

 

gec....could you also drop me a PM to let me know when you are planning on coming to MD. I might be doing the LED mod.

 

Said you can't recieve PM's so I e-mailed ya

 

I would guess 74 also, I called my local Nissan dealer and they didnt have a clue.

 

Sorry for newbie question, but I've searched and can't find how to remove the licenseplate light bulb. Can any 1 help?

 

remove the carpet liner on the inside of the trunk. i only took off the top 4 fasteners to pull enough back. the bulbs twist and come straight out.

they go into the housing perpendicular so you cannot fit long led bulbs. get some flank ones that light up on one side. or normal 194 bulbs.

 

Hey NismoMax80 .. thanks for the reply. Forgive me for my ignorance with this, but this 194, is it something that can be bought at a local store?

Thanks again

 

yes they are cheap. http://www.google.com/products?q=194...ed=0CDIQzAMwAA
might as well replace them both if one went out.

 

Does the bulb screw off from the back? there's a plastic clip on side of bulb base and doesn't let me get to the bulb from the front

 

from inside the trunk lid, once carpet is moved,
rotate the housing i think couter clockwise about 1/4 turn, straight out.
the bulbs are just a wedge and pull straight out of the housing.

 

Buy some LED ones from me, easy sweet upgrade!!!! Click the link in my sig....

 

Got it! Thanks a bunch for the info, NismoMax80.

 

Can't see ur sig
