those only have up to a 120 deg. beam

i have the Larimin package with dome, and 2 light "reading" lights

so i need a 360 deg beam for those bulbs.

any suggestions on a led bulb for the cup holder bulb on the 01 automatic cup holder bulbs.

im using one of ur faves ^^^ right now but not bright enough need somethin 120-180 outward facing. as apposed to one with 120 deg faced sideways

i only have them installed in the gauges since that is the only lights in the cab but they work great for that. my dad even liked them even though they do not dim they put out the perfect amount of light.

How do you correct for it? And how should I correct for my 285's?
I am interested in this.

So I took the emblems, cleaned them up nice, sanded them, hit 'em with some satin black paint and re-3M taped them back onto their home. Looks pretty decent, evem involved my girlfriend into putting one side's emblems on. Got a few pics: Also, here's a frontal for all those SRT8 Hood fans (this truck is a daytona so the hood came with it. Previous owner took off everything else Daytona beside the hood and serial#).
Dude, that looks better than de-badging. Black and Silver are the stock colors on the Daytona. Looks great.

When I SeaFoamed mine it didn't make a lot of smoke. Was disappointing. But it did take that last little bit of ping out of it.
