V-Leds,Interior Leds..Domelight leds,etc.

Hey guys..thought i'd post up a pic of some new leds I recently installed.As you know,many of us have been looking for an Led Solution for quite some time..the problem is,the kits out there,are either too dim,to expensive,dont work in some cases,and lets not forget the infamous,dome light/map lights shutting off after the vehicle is running for a few mins.Well these leds are everything we've been hoping for and then some ! I've got to give props to Shinchan,for first throwing out the idea.So anyways..here's some pics of these kick ass leds in my car.The pictures dont do justice ! They look much better in person,and quite honestly are bright as hell! A little too bright,but then again im still adjusting to them as I previously had GP Thunder cheapy Leds. Anyways check out the pics..The best part about them,no codes,and no shutting off after the car is running,these things actually stay on ! No flickering,etc.

Here's the link for the ones I used for under the doors,and drivers&passenger footwells: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...68086-1-2.html

and for the dome lights I used these : http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED/D...92687-1-2.html

Btw I tried the map lights again to show a friend of mine,and after a while they eventually shut off.. but the good news is the dome lights stay on all the time so im gonna buy another set of the high powered leds im using for the domes to see if maybe by having both map lights and domes with the same wattage,they may operate correctly.

My bro had the same kind of leds from company called Pilot in his X5 as i do in my 2007 E90. Mine used to turn off after a few seconds when contact was on and you lit them. Changed them to the flat Cambus electronic leds from Pilot and having no problems at all with them since they act as bulbs but are leds

Thanks..i'm actually gonna buy another set of the high powered leds that Im using on the dome lights to use on the maps,my theory is,if they're all the same bulb,with the same wattage,they wont shut off.When I tried the v-leds on the map lights,I had some very low powered (1w) leds on the dome and the map light..so that may have something to do with it..i'll definitely keep you all posted.
