one bad bg Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 the light number is 158, its a festoon bulb. SBLED's doesnt say the length of their festoon bulbs so email them and ask them what color options you have for a festoon bulb that 27mm long, they have every size, their website just isnt detailed enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amp27 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 hmmm. 158 is a wedge bulb...... need a festoon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amp27 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 yea. i figured if i was changing the map and dome to led colors green and blue i was gonna change everything eles in the car to. even behide the ac unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one bad bg Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 or you could do what i did. i did the led cluster mod for all my interior lights. including the door lights you speak of. theres a writup on it in the performance section. basically you take the autozone led flashlights that have 9 leds in them, take them apart so you just have the cluster of leds and hardwire them in with a resistor.

amp27 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 colored. and yes that is an opion just wanna keep it oem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one bad bg Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 mine are all white, except my gauge cluster and hvac. the led flashlights at autozone are all white leds. and if you wire the right resistor you can make them really bright cause our interior lights suck for brightness. i think i used a 1/2 watt 350 ohm resistor for mine which is hella bright but not so bright that it blinds you. a pack of 5 resistors from radio shack is only a buck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amp27 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 yup yup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one bad bg Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 dont think im an ass but some people on here are completly car and electornics retarded so im gonna assume you dont know, but if you do that led mod to replace your interior bulbs, you HAVE to use a resistor, if you put 12v straight to leds theyll be super bright for about 3 seconds and then burn out. if i remeber correctly 350 ohm is really bright, 250 is kinda bright, and 150 is about stock.

amp27 Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 sorry sorry. and i belice thats backwards. less ohms means mean current and brighers lights, also depends on the amont of leds. more leds pull more power. more power needs a high wattage resistor. electronics are my thing i love. wanna be a green engineer. going to school for that. spelling not so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one bad bg Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 haha k. well i know the ohms thing doesnt make sence but thats the way it goes. ive seen 150 ohm led mods done and their nowhere near as bright as mine, and they used the same flashlights as i did for it.

subikid90 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I just heard from SBL... Hello, The closest festoon bulb we have to 27mm is a 30mm model. I recommend the 3022-R4 or R9: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-bin/store/index.cgi?action=DispPage&Page2Disp=%2Fspecs%2Ffestoon_3022-xx.htm -- Thanks Mat Super Bright LEDs, Inc. superbrightleds.com Looks like we will have to live without that bulb. From what I have seen on my car anything bigger would mean bending the socket for the bulb. They have the socket for the 30mm bulb on their website. Maybe it can we switched out? -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amp27 Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 no. if you look at the socket it is not like the one they sell. and yes 30 mm. we can make it work. ill be the test dumby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subikid90 Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 Okay sounds good. Let me know how it goes -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one bad bg Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 if you bend them back a little and then push em in at the tip. the 30 should fit. that probably doesnt make sence, but when you do it, youll be like, "oh...thats what he was talking about."
