So I finally got all of the parts in from V-LEDS, and finished my complete LED conversion. I changed out every light except for the HID Headlights and the Foglights. I took a few pictures of the lights in the day, they didn't turn out too great, but here they are. I am going to take some night shots tonight.
I also took a few pictures of the resistors and where I mounted them for the flashers.
The cabin LEDs are U.V and HID White. The External LEDs all match the original factory colors except for the front sidemarkers which are now HID White.

Looks great, but did you put LEDs in the headlight housing? I don't think they'll last in there. I have red LEDs in my dome lights and love it, but will probably get the autolumination hyper white 194s for the DRLs.

I did put them in the headlight housing. I got bulbs specifically for that.

Flicker on the dome light is minimal. You can see it in the day, but not at night. They also fade a little bit faster, but overall it is no big deal and I am happy with it.
Looks good. How's the auto dim look on the interior lights? Do they flicker, or does they still fade out like the stock bulbs?[/b]

I should also note that if anyone is planning on replacing the blinker lights, be ready for some work. Installing the resistors and lights in the trunk is easy, putting them in the front is a PITA. You are working with limited space, limited wires, and overall crappy conditions! :P

Where did you go through to switch out the Blinker bulbs? Just curious, I went through the fender wells. Cranked the wheels over removed a few clips and did twisted my arm and got it that way. woulda been a lil easier to take the wheel off and the well covers all the way.

Mine are the same way -- dim with the dome lights very nicely.

I went in through the wells also, the only problem is that to get to the wires you have to go via the engine compartment, especially if you want to mount the resistors. It took a lot of time to get the wires, cut them out of the black wrapping, get the wiretaps to clamp properly and then have enough wire to pull it back in the sleeve and plug the blinker in. Over all I think it was worth it because it completes the look. The only disappointment was the yellow base of the LEDs which I didn't see while ordering them. You can't tell too much, so I will live with it.
