Update: Interior LED lighting conversion...

hey guys, well heres an old trick i did on my E36 bmw. I converted all of the interior lighting bulbs to LED based bulbs instead of the normal filament style bulbs. What this does is ...

* Reduce electricity used by almost 95%
* Reduce strain on the electrical system
* it emits ZERO heat unlike conventional bulbs
* it will last 10 times longer than any conventional bulbs
* it emits a much higher quality vibrant true white light


The only downside is it is slightly pricy but when u take into account that the bulbs will last a lifetime then it is actually a bargain b/c u will never have to replace another bulb again.

Anyways here are the pictures (i left some of the stock bulbs in place to show a comparison of before and after. (sorry for the blurry pics, the camera isn't the best in the dark.)

The final bulb tally is as such for W140's but im sure its almost the same for W202s...

for 6411 bulbs (39mm 9LED super white bulbs)...
- lower door bulbs (4, 1 per door)
- two for front main dome lights
- one for rear dome light
- Liscence plate ones SHOULD be 6411 too
- one trunk bulb

BA9S bulbs

- two front map lights
- two rear reading lights

Total count = 14 @ roughly $5 a peice

I did not do any of the vanity mirrors and I wont so i dunno about those but hope that helps guys.
