RIP GALANT, GOOD MORNING BMW 330i

i just got my 194 LEDS today...about to do it later on, hopefully comes out nice
Those regular blue bulbs or other colored bulbs start to go bad pretty quickly. In a few months, you can take them out and most of the blue will be burned off the bulb. LED is definitely the way to go.

Guys! I need some help...I got the L.E.D.'s from speedhut. the same link that was posted here earlier. Anyway, I did the install and everything went smoothly. But, I turn on my lights, dimmer up all the way and half of them are not working! Not only that, the ones that do work are by no means High-Bright like they say they are. I can barely see anything besides the needles. Is it possible to put these in backwards or anything? suggestions?

yeah you'll probably have to turn them around. i had purchased sum leds @ a local auto shop but they werent as bright as i would liked for them to be so i just put the stock ones back on. till i find sum brighter ones.
Thats because you didnt order the ones that were the brightest. You skimped on the price, therefore expect skimpy quality. I too skimped on the price when i ordered my LED bulbs from Auto Illumination, and they were not nearly as bright as they shouldve been. I had to order 3 more bulbs that were slightly brighter but nowhere near as the ones Voratec has.Originally Posted by jwright09
Thats what Voratec ordered.
Thats what i first ordered and they were not bright at all.
Heres what i ordered the second time. I ordered 3 of these. And it aint bright the way id like them to be. Ill be ordering brighter bulbs soon.
Heres a pic of mines now. As you can see, there nowhere near as bright as Voratecs.
I put cool white leds in mine and I ended up with this
thanks, i got them all working but yeah they're just not bright enough. New bulbs are on the way, thanks man.
(this time im getting the ones vorcatec got, not taking any chances)

are the LED's from speedhut bright enough to use?
Awesome, I pulled it out the other night to have a look to see if I'd be able to do it myself, figured I can, and have now ordered some LEDs from autoillumination. Wish me luck!
I did this months ago heres my pic!

The one's I got are listed as WLED-x5 LED Wedge Base Bulbs
Is everyone happy with the led hotspots in their dash?
LED bulbs are directional so they shoot out light in one spot of the dash... I dont know about you guys but it doesnt seem like a perfect solution even though it may be brighter than stock (in some areas of the dash)...
