Ok guys, finally, after spending $$$ for lots of bulbs and testing, got my lights done!!! So for reverse lights, use these, 194 168 W5W 2825 SMT Tower III from autolumination.com Here is the link:

http://autolumination.com/194.htm

For signal bulbs, user 5 watt led bulbs, others are too dim!Got them from eautoworks.com, model #113619 - SPL3091W. Here is the link. http://www.eautoworks.com/html/produ....cfm?id=113619. Also buy the resistors from there as well, 6ohm 50 watt resistors will eliminate fast signaling problem once the leds are installed. Make sure to get 3157, 3156 will NOT work. On 3157 you will have to bend clips just slightly to make contact. I also taped led to the bulb socket to make sure it does not fall out in case of a vibration.

Wow, first time I've seen this. You have to remove the taillights to change bulbs?! Whatever happened to taking out a piece of plastic panelling from inside the trunk and reaching from there.

btw, my next project will be splicing a video bypass module into stock RGB connector, so you can watch video while driving. And since its RGB, it will not affect your NAV system. As soon as I'll do that, I'll post it somewhere otside the this forum, since this forum does not allow that!
