    Minor interior LED upgrade

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ordered 10, 194 15 diode CAN-BUS bulbs from eGhey for $18 shipped. I had originally only planned for these to be used in reverse lights, but came to find out they would fit everywhere that took 194. I installed them in the trunk, the bottom of all four doors, and my glove box. That leaves my ceiling lights and vanity mirrors and I'll have done the whole interior for a fraction of what the kits cost.















    2013 A6 3.0T - Slightly better than poverty package.

    Past:
    2009 A4 2.0T Avant - Totaled
    2000 A4 1.8T - Sold
    1999 Millenia S - Sold, though it should've been crushed 'n cubed
    1997 A4 1.8T - Totaled, repaired, sold years later better than before
    1990 Maxima - Totaled from hail dents
    1987 Maxima - Sold
    1986 Golf Diesel - Rusted and fell apart

    FYI, only the vanity bulbs need to be CANBUS (or you'll get an issue when you open the glove box).

    Really? That's rather interesting. Good thing I've ordered nothing but CANBUS bulbs. I think they're built a bit better than the non-CANBUS versions. My next batch is the roof lights and that'll be it for interior bulbs.

    Ya, if your vanity lights aren't canbus (or have resistors) then the all the interior lights turn off when you open the glove box. Lol
