Default LED footwell bulbs . . .

One of my LED footwell light bulbs appparently didn't survive winter storage ( I upgraded all the interior lighting to LED two years ago). Where's the cheapest place to buy one replacement bulb?

eBay tends to kill you on the shipping . . . I just wondered if anyone had a good/bad experience with one of the forum vendors, I would of course rather buy there.

I bought LED strip from vendor on here installed about 1 week ago. They are great. Great customer service.
Just curious did you get the 12 LED strip or the 18 LED strip?
Is there a big difference in brightness in between the two?
It maybe more challenging to install the 18 LED strip because of limited space especially driver side footwell. Just curious

I didn't replace my factory incandescent bulbs with strips, just with plug-in LED's for each socket. Just looking for one replacement bulb. I have found them to be completely adequate, in fact much better than the factory units - brighter, cleaner light.

Negative,,,just bought two strips of LEDs....shipped from Asia, cost me 5 bucks!....

But a better alternative would be to support the Forum vendors....

Yeah, you're right . . . I looked around eBay for awhile and found some for about 3 bucks each with free shipping, and not from overseas. Should have 'em in a few days. Thanks, all.
