And 2 Round strips on the Speaker boundary!

Is is ok?

he he :)
better get the readymade one(i.e. it will be neatly soldered and packed). i got my underdash light the readymade one. 80rs one. so in your case you will be needing 6. maintain colour sense. take care while you get it done. the bulbs (under dash and seats must not be visible. in under dash paste in in such a way that the bulbs face little upwards.

which colour you planing? blue is common . dont go for red. green ok. white decent.
choose the best option from above:tongue:

Blue- I also feel is too common.
Red- Naah! I dont want to be a Dracula/Nightmare!
Green- No. Not to my liking. Sure it looks nice on your car [:)]
White- Yes, Will think of this. They will also improve the visibility in the car.

What about ORANGE/DEEP YELLOW?
Hehe. WIll look good IMHO. Here in TAI, Some one has got Orange LEDs in his Verna. (Not fluidic, Simple one!)

ya i saw that verna here. but i have never seen orange. but deep yellow is not there i guess. instead you can get warm white that can be compared close to yellow.

i found this recently. in some electronic shops where we get ICs resistors and those stuffs. they are now selling LED strips they are nott water proof. but for interiors you can use them. per meter 100rs. multi colour also available with blinking lights or running lights . i guess if you use these multi coloured your ride will be looking like a moving disco :P

if possible can some one post pics of LED lamps for parking light.
  • Is it like replacing the stock bulbs with LED bulbs or
  • Keep the stock parking bulbs as it is and add LED strips inside or outside of the HL unit
Actually I want to improve the visibility of my reverse gear light at the back. any suggestion?

Thanks Mr. Saishibu.

Ya GP raod is the best place I know. But now I do not know the status of that road since the entire mount road traffic [from parrys to gemini] was diveretd to this road.

But I think I can give a try with some shops in anna nagar. I found some shop near saravana bhavan, anna nagar. But then even that road is also became oneway i belive.

So let me check. Iam planning to meet one person near velachery for some ICE work by next week. May be he should be able to help me.

Hi Sethu, All the new cars bulb holders are the same.. Its called as pressing type bulbs.
It can be found in side indicators, ac control switches,speedo meter (backlit)etc ...

So you can just remove the regular bulb and fix this..

One suggestion, please go for white LED only. Others wont look good. (multi colours usually you can find them in cabs)
