Looking for interior lights recommendation

Hey everyone

Can anyone recommend me some brighter bulbs for the interior?

Just done the rear interior light mod, but want more light

Thanks

Try fitting LEDs in the interior lights ... the cleaner, whiter light makes quite a difference. Lamps with 6+ SMDs should give you plenty of light.

Just put these in my BMW and they work a treat, ordered Tuesday evening and arrived Thursday morning.

Had the same in my Vec and was very happy with them

Puddle lights and boot lights I used these, again ordered on Tuesday arrived on Thursday.

As the rear interior lights bulbs are mounted horizontally, those second one's (or similar) would be a good choice.

Sorry should have mentioned. The flat style were fitted in the rear in the Vec

For the Vec boot I used the festoon style SMD's below

Might get both sets, flats for the rears, and the all-rounders for the front (since the unit is bigger).

I'll give them a whirl and report back

Cheers chaps!

Just a thought, anyone got any pics from of theirs?

I did a post with my 20smd LEDs, like a fiver for 10 on eBay and rediculously bright, can't find the post like due to the new crappy search function...

You don't need CanBus anti-error bulbs for the interior, as they're not checked. You can then choose cheaper ones, preferably with a concave diffuser to avoid the bright spot effect. You'll need this kind and nothing else for the rear ceiling lights anyway, the shortest you can find.
