    So, first off, Thanks for the list! Second, for idea's sake, what did you all use as your replacements? Such as the actual product... I checked superbright and vleds and see sooooo many different options that it makes me feel like its not as easy as I hoped. I am absolutely not an electrician or super experienced at changing the lights in a car, but, some of these bases I see on these bulbs look unfamiliar in total.

    Hell, typically I buy mods and sit on them for 3-4 weeks before I even have time to put them on hehe, so I'd like to make sure I get the right crap the first time lol.

    Also, for fog light replacements, I have 5k HID headlights and HATE the color difference in the fogs. I dont care if the light output isnt as good, can someone recommend an actual foglight replacement that isnt a zillion bucks?

    Thanks in advance!

    What did you use to do your sticking? Two-sided automotive tape? I want to use something that can stand up to the temperature of the resistors.

    [QUOTE=rez0nance;290841][COLOR="red"]I believe non-sunroof cars have 2 interior bulbs as they lack the map lights... If anyone that owns a car sans sunroof can confirm I'll update things.

    I don't have a sunroof in mine (was a hard one to find!) and there are two dome lights requiring 1 194 in each. No map lights.

    I mounted my resistors (all four) on a metal plate (help absorb heat) and the metal plate is suspended by zipties under the dash. Its suspended so its not near anything or can swing into anything, to keep the heat from getting near anything.

    I have all four resistors tied into the wires coming out the BCM, so I dont have to mess with any wiring at each bulb location.
