Default LED interior upgrade. Which is the best. Vendors welcome

So I see a couple of the vendors here offer the LED upgrade packages for the interior. I even noticed a certain vendor running a promo on their kit. Another member posted a question regarding comparisons but was removed.

However I would like to know what kit is the best. Why is your kit better than a competitors (I'm basically asking you to sell me on your kit).

As for other members, which ones are you guys running

thanks

Frank,

Well, I will tell you this, I posted (what I thought was) a simple question and someone obviously thought that was too much to ask. As a result, I just ordered from the "other" vendor.

If you won't answer my questions before the sale, you won't answer them after the sale.

Chad I agree, it's a simple question and a company should have no problem defnding why their product is the better than te guy next to them.

I'm still awaiting a vendor to "sell me" their product but the silence in here is deafening.

I'm sure this will get locked for no good reason.

I am interested in purchasing LED's for my interior lights. They sell kits where I can change every single light? What is the price range of these kits?

Yes they have kits where you can change the lights, they range in price and a couple vendors carry them, different styles/types.

Still awaiting vendors in here, they should give more details.

Our LED kits carry a lifetime warranty. They are all plug and play and require no cutting or soldering. Our SMD bulbs are VERY bright and white which eliminates the yellow halogen bulb effect. These kits are by far our most popular products!

1. Don't all the kits from all vendors have lifetime warranty?
2. Aren't they all plug and play?

I'm looking to see what sets yours or another vendors a step above.

Or in reality are they all the same product and we should just be looking at the pricing?

I was looking into this also and found that one vendor was selling leds that did not fit the drivers side, anyone else have this problem. LED's are not new or unique to the vette. You can find them all over the net. I would choose the best quality and not fall for gimmick sales or sets that don't fit. I always look at a CF vendor first

I picked up a complete set of the JW leds from a private seller and they are bright. The LEDs really add the interior of the car and look awesome. The only bad thing is it was a royal pain in the **** to change out the rear view mirror lights.

I cheaped out and got some 194 LEDs on ebay and also some reverse LEDs and trunk LEDs. At first I was pretty proud of myself having done it for <$30 total but then two or three of the 194 LEDs started flickering and the (forgot what # I ordered) LEDs I got for the trunk were the wrong type so I had to solder some hangers onto them. The soldering wasn't a big deal as I like that kind of stuff but the flickering is wicked annoying. I am going to try to fix it with some voltage regulators, again because I like tinkering, but if you want plug and play LEDs I'd stick with JW or CorvetteMods. I have no personal experience with CorvetteMods but I bought my switchback LEDs from JW and they are spot on.

LED interior bulbs are a nice little mod IMO. It makes the interior much more "modern luxury car'ish".

All of the bulbs fit in the kit I got from JW. Though, being the idiot I am, the passenger side rear view mirror oem bulb shattered into a thousand tiny pieces when trying to replace it so only one side has been replaced.

Thanks everyone that suggested us. We only sell the best here.

The reason we only offer one version of the leds instead of a cheaper version is because ours have been tested and proven to work. We had a few C6 owners test out these kits before we even offered them to CF members.

The cheaper sets have a tendency to flicker also.

Our price is always $80 shipped for the set.
