    Sorry for bad pictures. but you get the idea.

    So first up we have a set of 35w 5k HIDs. Visibility has increased and great looking cutoff lines in the projectors.

    And also some interior lights.

    Rear wasn't quite as bright as I would have liked it...so here is a ghetto way of increasing light output just by a little bit.

    Everything was super easy to install, lowbeams took me maybe 8 minutes for both sides and the LED's maybe like 2 minutes... Definitely something that can be done cheaply and very effective.

    Do the LED lights still fade away? Or do they just shut right off?

    They do fade off, and it takes about 30 seconds or so.

    For my middle dome light, I installed a surface mounted multi led panel. I think It has 24 individual LEDs. Works well, fits fine and is nice and bright.

    My map lights are just cheapy regular t10 LEDs which are still brighter than stock.

    All of them fade out nicely.

    Where did you get your led headlamps? Just the bulbs or was it more complicated? I'd love to go LED with the headlights but don't want a project that will get complicated.

    P.s. just re-read and I see you did HID lamps... question answered... thanks!

    i would highly go against using led bulbs for replacement of high beam. it will not do anything!
