LEDs are funny that way... I soldered a bulb into my cluster and it needed to be flipped to work but it did too... Always the first thing I check. Pics?

Looks brighter then what I have. Mine only has 3 LEDs in it but it is amazing how much light those little things put out. Very nice... I did the bulbs in the door too.

I've got a super white 3 or 4 LED bulb. I actually like how it is dimmer than the stock bulb. It's a great mood light :

The D in LED stands for diode. Diodes only work on one polarity.

yea, 921’s led sound good, but will they greatly differ from stock bulbs, but green in color? Since they’re not really for illumination, just for show… plus the 9led design is made in a circle pattern, bulbs in doors are positioned sideways, meaning several led's will be useless. I was thinking of buying just regular incandescent green bulbs. You have any before and after pics?

The 921 bulbs I have are "wide angle" ones. Although its pattern is not as spread out as a regular bulb, think of it as a big upside down triangle. When I open my doors, my entire seat is illuminated pretty much. Sorry, don't have before pics, and after pics won't show much as the blue isn't easily captured by a camera. Only reason why I like LEDs is that they consume so little power, comine various colors, and emit no heat.

I have an i35, but it is no dif from the I30. The 921 bulbs fit like any other 194 bulb, just bigger.

I picked up my LED’s today form the post office (stupid sender packed 2 1 inch lights in a box size of a VHS, which didn’t fit in to the mailbox). Couldn't wait till it got dark enough, here are some pics...

The ones in there are not wide angle hence the gap.
