I'll take some pictures as soon as I can. Here's what you need:

6 M4 Hyper White: License plate (1), trunk (1), side markers (2), and parking lamps (2)

2 M2 Hyper White: Back up lights (2) and turn signals (2 if you want white turn signals)

2 M16 Hyper White: Map/interior (these are sold in a pair, so you need only one pair)

2 M60 Miracle White H1: High beam halogen ( near perfect match for the HID color) (These are sold in a pair, so you need only one pair)

I don't think photos will help you much. Just imagine all the lights putting out light the color of the HIDS -- a very pure white that doesn't have a yellow hue. The bulbs are coated with a blue film or dye of some kind, which must filter the yellow out of the light, but they don't look blue when their lit.

I'll take some photos when it gets dark tonight and post them tomorrow.

Thanks Rick for the extremely thorough post. Just one comment on the AutoSportz site, every time you order a different bulb, they tag on and additional $8.00 to the shipping cost so if you're looking to buy the 4 bulbs types, shipping comes out to be $32.00. Um, am I missing something here?

Here are some shots of the front lamp arrrays and the back up lights. Note that the color of all the white lights matches -- fogs, HIDs, parking, backup, and even license plate (look closely at the bulb, not the reflection).




Interior roof light

Get them from another source -- their prices and shipping charges are the worst!

Has anyone ordered from autosportz.com lately? I ordered/paid for the M16 Polarg interior bulbs after reading Rick's recommendation almost 2 weeks ago now and have heard nothing from them. I have even sent emails to them and have gotten no response. Anyone had similar dealings with them? I also just realized from the above post that I paid $8.00 to ship these 2 tiny little bulbs, I wish I would have paid more attention. If I don't have them by Monday I am going to call the credit card company and have the charges reversed.
