Stupid Questions coming up,

What Bulbs does the S2000 use for Interior Light, Boot Light and Number Plate Lights?

Any Good LED's Reccomendations for these? Dont want stupid Colours or anything just Brightness,

Same for the Side lights as well,

And does anyone have any pictures of LED's in these Places?

Had a few LED's in my last car and still got some in the Pug, Some look great and some are Shocking,

So someone with Experiance and Reccomendations would really be a help,

Cheers,

Philip.

TBH, painting the inside of the housing chrome silver instead of dark grey makes one helluva difference.

Better than trying to put xenons in a matt black box!

I have replaced my interior and boot light with LED festoon bulbs. Maybe I was lucky but they did not sem to be directional and dont stay on with the switch off.Also had no problem refitting the lens.
Made a VERY noticable difference.

There's a chap who wrote a good thread on LEDs. IIRC, he lived in Ireland (can't remember if is North/South) . I recommend just searching for 'festoon AND LED' as he seemed to know what he was on about.
