Just as an FYI, these guys sell blue 6 led festoon lights, the type you would want for replacing your internal mirror lights. They also have white, amber, and multi-colour. I recently bought some blue ones and they sure do look nice

Fantastic find Ben, so now for those who can't find the right LED for their DIY dash job have another place for LED.

Maybe the Moderator would like to put a link of this page to the DIY LED one.

i really want to replace mine ..... but! $20 min order

and would be REALLY good if they can at lease provide pic on how it look, is it 41 x 10 mm or 31 x 10 mm?

wellz, i need to replace my globes for the voltmetre and clock thingy

the lights for the clock area has blown, and i picked up some green leds today from autobahn.

the direct swap was easy enuff, but ffs, i killed one of the other leds when removing the housing plastic for the volmetre one

so right now, am looking to just replace the batt+volt+mirror lights to blue leds.

So akuma3, if your interested we can put thru an order together and get that $20 thats required - depending how many leds your getting as well?

I got my map lights from there... they cost about $25 including postage, so you don't need to order anything else.

Can't recomend them enough... I think I have the 41mm

i forgot to post that place before, i got led from them and i have to say they are the brighter ones compared to other led i have bought previously..

i stand corrected i did post this site before...

that site had good t5 bulbs...

this site had bright t10's and also has the festoon bulbs

i found some 6pack LEDS at autobarn, 44X10 fits into the mirror light spots.

now i realise that no one has posted on this thread for over 2 years, but anyone know how to take the rear-view mirror off? just wanna see how the blue LED's look, the cable is easy but i dont wanna force anything into breaking it.

it slides off from memory

is that from the top bit right against the glass? if u remember ...

You don't need to take the mirror off to change the lights, just get a small flat screwdriver and flip the lenses out carefully.

If you do want to remove the whole mirror though, pull down slightly from the front, then twist it 90° (carefully, of course.

yea, i actually found that out already, and then when i put the second LED in the fuse blew out so i guess il be replacing that 2morro. looked good though for the half a minute i had em in
