Not any brighter than stock. But very nice!! I think if you have a black interior the blue makes it feel very warm.

I turned off the lights in the garage and set the camera for a long exposure.

You can buy them at Radio Shack, but they are like $4.00 for two. You can buy them online (see above) for $.34 cents each and you will need twelve for the mirror.

What size / type do I ask for? I know nothing about this.

Thanks in advance.

James Earl Jones voice..Go to the top of this thread and click on the links and all will be revealed my dense one.

It's not hard at all to do. Take a jewelers flat head and pop the cover off the mirror light covers. Pull out the lights and unplug them. Then simply use the soldering iron to remove the old LED's and solder in the new ones noting the polarity.

The first pic.. All the interior lights were changed to blue. Two under the dash, two in the trunk, and the mirror LED's.

The second pic was taken from the front left fender looking through the windshield to the inside.

ok, i can make out the dash and steering wheel now that you explained that. i know you said you slowed your shutter speed to get more light saturation...was that for the second pic only? i love the look but wouldn't want a "spot" anywhere near as defined as in this pic, is the first pic closer to reality? if so, i'll definitely be doing this in the near future.
