Internal LED's

Purchased a couple of different types of LED's to try in the bottom of the doors, boot and footwell

All a lot better than the standard lamps, but the ones below were by far the brightest!

The front and back roof lights are a different type of lamp, could anyone tell me what type these are???


Thanks

John

When I did mine every single bulb were the same- front,back, footwell, number plate etc. The only ones which are different are the vanity mirror ones but I didn't bother with those.

Haven't looked at replacing the roof lights yet, but been told they are different to the rest? Just need to know what they are called?

Are these just a straight swap? No resistors needed? After having nice LEDs inside the merc I'd be up for fitting some in my RRS after I pick it up this Thursday.

Cheers

As I said- all the roof lights, footwell, lower door, glove box lights are the same type. The only ones which are different are the vanity mirror lights- but LEDs are a bit too bright for those anyway. So you only need one type of bulb for everything

Yeah straight swop and, apart from the glovebox, and very simple, cheap and effective mod.

Yep your right! Just been out and changed the front roof lights, but can't get the covesr to the rear roof lights off! Any pointers how I get these off without damaging them?

Think I just used a table knife- can't remember it been tricky but I know the wire can disappear behind the headlining if you don't hold on to it when you take the old bulb out.

Not directly linked, but is there any way to get passenger lights to come on when doors open, my options are on permanent or off it would appear? Thanks. John

There is a way if you have a search on here- pretty sure it involves soldering skills though.

I've got LED's throughout the interior and after buying off ebay etc. I've found that the only ones that have lasted are the ones from Advanced Factors, yeah they cost more but so far I've not been disappointed.

I found that the 12SMD panels fit nicely (with some persuasion) into the door and foot well courtesy lights. I also fitted one in the boot.
http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/glo133-12...4777-p.asp

The rear reading lights I replaced with 36SMD panels (again some modification required). I don't think they stock them anymore.

In the mirror puddles I have these: http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/glo127-3w...3636-p.asp

I wouldn't recommend those for the interior though as they are insanely bright, I initially bought two for that purpose and after half blinding myself fitting it, once the diffuser was fitted it was like sitting under a security light. They are amazing in the mirrors though.

EDIT: I'll take a few pics tonight if I get chance.
