the blacklights look pretty cool and arent too noticeable form the outside unless your wearing a white tee shirt and you in side the car. If left on while driving they dont bother you at all and are pretty cool. Downside is they arent bright at all. I took them out and placed the white leds in the dome and the UV ones in the door and headlights...

i have UV in the doors. Looks good when they are open at night. 12LED from superbrightleds.com THE UV in the dome is WAY too dark and too ricey looking. I put 12 led Hyper WHite in the dome. Perfect. Lights up everything liek HID headlights... Pretty SLICK looking. 4 led in the plate. Perfect set up. I also put 12 LED Hyper white in the city lights and since they are wide angle they dispearse the light evenly in the headlight assembly and look great at night with the setting that doesnt turn on HIDS but parking light is city is on. Finally no more yellowish CRAP halogen lighting beside the fogs(i NEVER turn them on, ever. Installing JWT tonight and then washing my car and the having sex with it.

I just did this mod for the doors and license plate lights. Easiest mod ever!
Just a tip. Others mentioned disconnecting the battery so the lights don't get hot but there is a button on the side of the door that enables the windows to roll down when the door is open and the doors lights to stay on. I just used some clamps and wrapped the door frame as not to scratch anything and voila...door light is off while I'm trying to take out the bulb.
I never knew how such a tiny mod can make such a difference for me. Now I just want to leave my doors open ALL the time! haha I hate that gunky yellow.

The WHP18 definitely will not fit. The WHP9 may or may not.
I used the WLED-WHP which is a single high power. It is 20 lumens compared to 12 lumens for the 5 and 6 LED regular ones that most people are using the map and doors. It is the first one in the table at this link:
