Just installed all mine today. They look great.

I went with 12s in the reading lights and 5s everywhere else. Oh and the single high output for the trunk. Thanks for all the help and for the guys who found out which bulbs fit where.

The 5s in the license plate lights were a little looser than I would like. I guess I'll just check them every few days to make sure they're not going to fall out.

Oh and a warning for anyone removing the reading lights. I dented the plastic molding around them a bit when prying them out, definitely be careful not to apply pressure to the plastic around the lights.

Anyone.... Bueller.... Bueller???

Can someone please post instructions on an easy way to change the front turn signals??? Is there such a way (without removing the bumper or going into the wheel wells)?

I think it looks pretty cool.....I wouldn't want it on while driving though. Maybe a switch nearby for easy on/off.

Pretty sweet mod!!

easy but not easy like changing ur map and door lights...i'd say it took me about 45 mins to install them and hide the wires the way i want them...also the lights came with 6ft wires which was fine except for the rear passenger seat...it was a lil too short so i had to do some wire splicing

^^Admins, we really need a rule added. If individuals don't take pictures of the steps they take to do these mods then that is an instant ban. I know everyone is excited about doing mods on their cars BUT what is more important, your car or the community at myG37.com? lol...j/k
