Thanks pikka, the superstars are on order!
I think I'll stick the "old" matrix into my wife's civic, she's been complaining that I don't do anything for her car...."no, serious honey, I bought these specifically for your honda!"

philip, sorry about the clips, california's coldest this week was about 68 degrees .
thanks for the comparison, it seems that the LED's are bright enough, but the OEM is much brighter.
I guess its the preference of having the matching cool looking reverse lights (although still functional) or the brighter incadescent light.

S4play, that would be great to have a side by side comparo witht the GS.

 

S4 cant wait to see those comparison pics.

 

don't sweat it too much - between the S and Ody, i break enough clips and pins that i keep a small stock of typicals. 2 or 3 extras of a few varieties. about $10 in clips from HTG.

and yeah - the incadescents are brighter. if i had something better to do w/ the bulbs, i might change them out. but i don't, so they'll be staying where they are.

 

LOL, I have a whole bag full of fender liner clips, I eat through those all the time

Sarek, you get the super star in yet?

 

not yet, waiting anxiously...

 

i just order the Superstar $7.99 super white! this superstar is the same as the $6.99?

 

I am running a parallel 6 leds for the plate light, it's pure white and shine upon the whole plate.

the whole led thing is fitted into the clear oem blub cup thing so everything is reversible.

btw pikkashore, your setup looks awesom also

 

ok installed it 3 days ago. I did notice a VERY slight increase in light, I like it.
Still not as bright as the Lexus though...

iam7head, would you mine sharing a pic? was it custom or something we can do too?

thanks in advance for any info.

 

Picture? sure, but i need to fix some minor stuff, i want to get the light to have a complete coverage for the whole area, not just the center of the plate so i have to refocus them a bit.

but i am on my final exam week now so everything have to wait.

it just 6 mini white led on a piece of circuit board, the whole thing sits inside the clear oem cup.

 

Sarek, I am starting to realize my lights are not as bright as the lexus.

I dont know if its the fact that the lexus vehicles have two bulbs, where as we only have one, or if they have different bulbs. I think I am going to go to a lexus parts dept and order the bulbs to see if they make a difference.
