I replaced the map lights and the trunk light with some LED lights. Here are some pictures......................

 

Looks good. Where did you get them? Did you replace your clearance and license plate lights as well?

 

Can't remember where I got mine but they make a complete change IMO, one of my fav mods.

 

I got them from Diode Dynamics. I replaced the license plate lights a couple months ago. I already had LED's for the parking lights that I put in about a year ago. Now I'm not happy with them and will probably buy the brighter parking lights from Diode Dynamics. Here is their website http://www.diodedynamics.com/store/

 

I have the same kind. I got mine from ebay for mb like $10 and these are great!

 

leds dont light up as much area tho so be prepared.

i reccomend v-leds in 5k color temp to avoid the blue.

I got them CREE Reverse LEDs. They are AWESOME. Downside is, they are projector based, and the bulb is actually angled diagonally outwards so not too much straight back lighting, but it's good when backing out. Should definitely pick those up tho ;o I LED'd my Z within the 1st few month after I got her.

 

Lighting is probably the most budget friendly mod to do first!

The white color is awesome but seriously , it's way to frkn bright in there. Has anyone had experience with other options?

I was thinking about getting these instead.

Anyone try these?

 

We have many different stages of brightness to suit your taste! FYI those ones you linked to are not very reliable- we had them for about 5 months but had to recall them due to bad reliability. I'd stick with the SMD type bulbs.

 

I'd like to order some map lights in white that are half as bright as the ones I have. PM me for info. ship to 91792

 

OP - which brightness level did you get?

 

I got the Stage 3 lights. The map lights have 12 LED's each and the trunk light has 6 LED's.

 

DD is awesome, ordered mine, shipped same day, and arrived to my door in three days. I have the Stage 2 LED, bright enough for me without going overboard. Still have yet to change the parking lights in the headlights to LEDs though. Fit and finish of the pieces are really nice from what I can tell. Overall best mod money I spent on the Z.

 

Definitely go with the panel smd style. Look awesome. I got mine from baus auto. Good quality stuff. I feel as though it is not too bright as long as you don't look at it. Just be careful installing because it will blind you lol.

I also got the Cree LED reverse lights but like said above they angle out so you don't get full brightness. I am thinking of fabricating something to shift the way it mounts in the housing.

 

I just put mine in a few days ago from Diode Dynamics. I did the stage 3 all the way around minus the turn signals. The map lights I did in blue since my z is Daytona Blue and the rest in white. I was a little worries with the map lights since I have double 5% tints on all windows but these s.o.b's look great and are the perfect brightness. the install could be done by a 3rd grade kid. If anyone wants pics please let me know I would be more than happy to provide so you can compare before you buy
