Default LED Replacements

I'm looking to replace the lights (dome lights, visor lights, trunk light, and license plate lights) with some white LED ones. I tried looking but it's a little overwhelming with all of the stuff I found and I'm not sure what I need for each of those things. Has anyone here gone and done this mod that could help out?

I used the diode dynamics and they have been fine. no issues from the interior lights and the license plate lights.

That was quick. Placed my order Thursday at about 2pm, and they got here 3 hours ago, less than 48 hours after ordering.

After a little bit of time with the lights I've noticed a few problems with the dome lights. They look great, however when I start the car they dim considerably (nearly off) during startup. They also seem to flicker a bit while driving, and when I turn off the car they will stay dimly lit. The only work around for the lights after turning off the car is that I switch the dome light switch to "Off". The problem with that fix is that they won't come on during startup.

Has anyone that replaced the OEM lights with LED experienced these issues and found a fix? I'm going to try and re-seat the bulbs in the hopes that will fix it as I love how they look but I don't want to have the issues that I am.

I ordered from the same vendor, and almost a year later, they look great, especially the license plate lights.
