Hey dude this stuff looks awesome. Now I'm actually the kind of man who prefers not to have bright lights on the inside of the car, only outside. I like my privacy inside the car, tints, no bright lights, etc.
I already modded all my interior lights how I wanted and they came out perfect. My map light is modded to where I reduced brightness just enough to still see everything in the car but the light is 100% invisible from outside the car (I smoked the lens with translucent silver).
I have two questions for you and I'm interested in perhaps buying a few of these:
1. Do you have a LED panel for the map light that would make my setup any better or more functional? I got the stock bulb in there now with a smoked lens. I'm thinking perhaps you have one that would make the light way more daylight-white and less yellowish and make it easier to see BUT still not be seen from outside the car with the tints.
2. I'm interested to know if you can make replacement LED's to fit the stock brake lights as well as maybe the side marker lights?
EDIT: ADDED QUESTION #3
3. I'm interested in doing a LED setup for my running lights (same bulb type as stock side markers in there now), which I want to be a nice cool white to match my 5K HID's. Also, if there are any amber LED's that I can put in my headlight for the turn signal that would be awesome, I'm not sure what the bulb is in the turn signals but I'll check and get back on that.

However, popping LEDs into the tail lamp housings designed for standard incandescents, you will NEED TO BUY the 360* viewing angle ones to get the best light output. This uses the reflectors in the housings the same way the standard bulbs do.
side marker lights are no big deal at all, I do have those (They're the same 194 base as the trunk / license plate light in my kit. I only have the cool white ones though, so to get the best light output from those you'll need the LED color to match the lens color. Red sidemarker = red LED. Orange sidemarker = orange LED.
any small 194 base bulb will work...no need for 360* here.

Should also be a 194 base as well, if it's the same bulb as side markers.
Turn signals (1157 bulb iirc if you have a 5th gen, 7440 if you have a 5.5 iirc) get tricky...you can't just swap in LEDs there and get normal operation. You'll get the hyperflashing of the turn signals with LEDs. To avoid the hyperflash, you need a load resistor or to change out the flasher unit under the dash. Changing the flasher unit is the easier method.
Hope that helps
oh....
Blue and cool white kits in stock ready to go!
Partial kit is 60 bucks shipped, full kit is 75 shipped. Full kit includes license plate and trunk lights too
No, just the normal cool white ones. I can likely get ahold of some though...if not warm white, at least some natural white.

Warm White is basically the same color temp as the current incandescent lights you have, sorta yellowish. Cool White is more of a crisp, white with a slight hint of blue.
PM coming your way
Have I seriously not bumped this since October? 
Shame on me!
BUMPITY BUMP BUMP
Cool white kits I have a few of still
Warm white kits I have a small amount of
Blue kits I have a bunch of!

Do you think you can get red led map light for 4th gen? Been looking everywhere online and in stores for it with no luck. Brought a pair of BA9S red leds from china but the bulb metal housing is just a tad too thin l to make the proper connection to work.
I can do it for you, just give me some time to get them in my possession. PM me for further deets
yes, I can do that. That's actually how I have my setup...blue door and white map/dome
Price would be unchanged.

Excuse me, I don't think I explained myself properly. I have only one map light in my 4th gen. I think the factory bulb is a 12v 10w (#57 bulb). I tried finding a replacement online for that bulb in a RED LED light, which is a bulb # BA9S but it didn't fit properly. I believe the adapter you have for the map lamp would fit, especially if other 4th gen owners have bought your LEDs and haven't had any problems. What I really want to know is can you get your LEDs (particularly the map light) in the color red? I don't care if its 9 or 12 SMD panel. Thanks!

Yes I can
I just wanted to make sure you knew it would be the panel with adapter, and not the actual BA9 bulb.
Just installed these just now - HOLY CRAP.
When i turn on any of the interior lights, it becomes daytime. I ended up installing the extra 48 panel in lieu of the 24 panel for the dome light, it actually fit very well. Having the map lights and the dome going all at once results in a hilariously bright interior; i actually started laughing the first time i turned them on because of how stupidly bright they are.
Only hiccups i had were getting the wires coiled up neatly, and accidently blowing a fuse while messing around with one of the map light connections.
Overall EXCELLENT product. Putting some bling in the max always feels good and if these lights arnt SHINY bling then i dont know what is!

you could use the 24 for the trunk if you so desire, just use one of the white adapters. Only issue with that is the panel of light protrudes from the tiny housing for the little bulb but I have yet to hear someone biitch about it.Lemme guess... you used a metal screwdriver to get the original map out, didn't you?
