We replaced the interior map lights, domelights, glovebox light, etc.in our 300C with LED'S. They put out a LOT more light and look cool as well. Have any of you done this in your Rams, and if so, can you give me the part numbers of the LED lights you used and where you got them? Thanks.....

 

The LEDs usually have the same part numbers as the regular bulbs, just LED.

As far as what numbers you need, this is taken from Sylvania's website and their automotive bulb replacement guide.

Thats the one issue I have with my Ram.
All lights are not bright.The headlights and fog lights aren't as bright as I would like them. Going clear will "clear" up the issue.
The interior lights aren't bright either. My wifes pacifica and my golf's lights are 2x brighter. I might try going LED on the inside, I just don't want to get blinded if i turn them on while driving.

 

The only way LEDs are usually that blinding are if you look directly into them and they are pointing directly at you. If there is any sort of angle at all, you won't be blinded.

I would go eBay for LEDs. I always have, and as long as you're careful about who you buy them from (look at feedback ratings), you should be able to get good deals. Another thing to watch out for, like always with eBay, is shipping costs. Some of them will greatly overcharge for shipping.

 

There is a good website for led's autolumination.com - but the website gives me a headache trying to figure out what's what on there. My truck is in the shop til Tues, so I guess I'll see what bulbs are in there when I get it back and try to match them up to led's.....

 

One of my cars has a lot of them changed out. Works great. The floor board lights are wired to old wire and stuck through the original light holder. The dash lights such as the fog lamp and mirror control panel lights have LED's siliconed in the light holes. Works good and the lighting color can be changed by the new lights.
