nah, when you pull them out and see the size you will know which ones to get.
I pulled out all of mine today...except the license plate. They're pretty easy to do.
The vanity lights are 29mm festoons, and on eBay, the replacements in LED are worth like $20 + postage!!!
Did you do your license plates too?
Hey do any of you know what sorta power and current ur LED's are taking?
Instruction manual says that you should be using 5W halogen globes... as far as i know, a 5W LED would b bright as fvck.
plus i can't seem to f ind any 5W T10 LEDs around
Those interior lights are nothing compared to my 48 led super white lights I bought online. Delivered at my door for just under $15. Although its a extremely tight fit.
noob questionl if the led's begin to flicker what does that usually mean?
Have you made sure the LED is sitting tight in its place? If it's a bit loose it tends to flicker. Check that first. Also, what kind of LEDs do you have?Quote:

ooh how much were they? They're from the US aren't they?
I just fitted mine (all cool white!!!). I got mine from superbrightleds as well...paid about US$110 incl. ems postage. They got here in less than a week! I think they look nice and wifey approves (!). Only small problem I've got is that the vanity ones are slightly thicker than the housing. I've forced it in and it looks okay...but still...I guess the fact that I know they're not the right fit is just bothering me.
Also, @longers: no flicker here mate.
LEDs don't last long on the Euro because of voltage fluctuation from the alternator, especially when the AC kicks in. My average LED bulb life was about 2-4 months with the normal LEDs and about 6-8 months with the superbright LEDs. I've gone to white regular filament bulbs now (came with philips crystalvision)Quote:

u can get white filament bulbs..? I'd much prefer that.
voltage fluctuation realllly messes up LED's. The other day i blew my parkers because i forgot that they were on when i started the engine :(
Your car was a Friday special.. :)Quote:

hey guys, are the vanity lights the same as the sunvisor lights? also does anyone know the measurements of these?
It's the same, 31mm.
Anyone know the exact number for the Door/Vanity/map/Boot lid lights from www.suprbrightleds.comQuote:

but the superbrightleds.com site does not have those number, the one from http://www.superbrightleds.com/mini-wedge.html seems to be the right but I can't be sure as it says T3-1/4 (#194/168) replaces: 194, 158, 168, 12256, 12961
Confused? Thanks in advance

Map lights are correct.
Door lights are correct, same thing, they just list the details differently, but its the same bulb though.
Awesome!
thanx for the heads up.
I'll order a few tonight!
So I'll need 2 for the doors, 4 for the ceiling lights?
+
What's the average life of these bulbs?
Any brand in particular i should look for..?
Because I could look into autobarn or superled website etc
2 for the doors, so thats one per side.
The ceiling lights, you need 3. two at the front and one in the rear.
lifespan, im not too sure, mine have lasted for more than 2 years so far. before that i had different colour, lasted alsmot the same time, probably still be ok. I changed them bcoz.....well i wanted a different colour....hahaha
eBay would be best go for these, be cheaper than autobarn n supercheap.
if you wanted bright ones, like i did, i looked for SMD LEDs or Flux LEDS, they were bright as.
Ahh, righteo, so cheaper = lesser quality in this case i suppose.
2 years is hell fine.
I'll give the ebay ones ago and see how bright they are.
theyre not gonna be for any 'real' purpose lol, just to look nice when i unlock the car ^^
Yeah I've done my doors and plate lights with blue, looks funkai!
Cost about $2 each from hong kong ebay :)
So i had a look see before i got my bulbs to see how to remove and access the bulbs, but can anyone show me how to remove the door ones?
tried to pry it like the others with my tools, but feels like i might break it lol.
+ how do u change em if they're constantly on when the door opens?
for the door lights.. i just pryed it with a small flathead on the minigap in the middle of the plastic, cant remember on the top or bottom. and yes its always on.. although bit dangerous, i just plugged it in and out :) still works, hope that helps :)Quote:

Reccomend you to use a cloth when you take out the bulbs :)Quote:

hey guys... just to let you know...
i was tryna change my vanity mirror lights on my 07' and i was using the info from here..
ordered 31mm fuse LEDs... turns out the euro uses 29mm..
should have really measured before i ordered them.. oh wells..
so yeah... it didnt fit... just a heads up :D
changed the parkers, door, maps and plate lights with LEDs... nice as.. ill put pics up later :D
Hey guys,
CU2 models with the blue led lights in the front and rear foot welds... does the White LED lights over power the blue light? This is with the door lights as i have noticed that the Honda Accessory lights arnt that bright to begin with...
BUMP
Hi Guys
Noob with all this stuff, so thought Id bump up this thread. I've been able to find heaps of info, but some of the links to buy leds for my 05 Accord are no longer working. I guess it is a matter of trial and hopefully you get a good set of lights.
I'm looking at getting Blue T10 - 5 SMD LEDs for the door
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/t10-1w-...-58297?item=30
and 31mm - 6 SMD LEDs for the map lights and cabin light at the back
http://www.dealextreme.com/p/31mm-1-...-51003?item=14
Will the Map Lights be bright enough and fit as well?
Also, I haven't tried opening up the Licence Plate lights, but what would be the best T10's for the plate lights so it is bright enough to see the plate.
Cheers
31mm for map lights wont fit flush!
31mm fits for me (05 euro pre FL)
oppz... my bad...
Not a good thing to do to a Noob. Haha. I'll check the measurement out tomorrow before I order.Quote:

Yeah the sizes seem all good. Got a couple of mine today. Still need to get the door ones, they didn't fit...too long so put them in the boot. Lazarus, did you end up changing your vanitys as well? Will 6mm ( instead of 5mm) x 31mm lights fit in the vanity. Those the only ones I can find on ebay.
Yeah I changed all indoor/parkers/plate lights to led white...
I can't confirm whether or not 6mm will work =X but keep looking, you'll find some!
Sorry for Bumping this old thread but yea need a hand with the drivers side door light, replaced all lights with no drama except for drivers side, light wont turn on at all, put old lights back on & no light. Anyone know how to fix it? is it the socket coils? if so how do we replace that?
check fuse box maybe?Quote:

Just bought some on ebay!!! I hope they come soon :p, will post photos when i get them!!
Sorry just realised you said everything but that one doesn't work :/Quote:

Hopefully it's the fuse and not the socket =X Was there anything different you did when removing the bulb? i.e. maybe pulled to hard, or snapped something?
does anyone know where i can purchase the door light covers? as one is broken and doesn't stay in?
A wrecker would be the easiest option.Quote:

Also the led for the map and mirror lights is same size but the holder in the mirror light is heaps smaller do i just shove it in?
Thanks
found the fuse and the blown fuse.
