This is an UPDATE to the old LED guide, that I have put together to give everyone the newest and best options I have gotten to work for our car.


NOTE: Please message me with any issues regarding the links. I know they can change over time, so I will update them if anyone notices they are out of whack.

This is a mini-guide on which LEDs to use for our car with success, and great results to improve lighting and looks. I will post this once now, and questions are welcome under the post of course. Please do not clutter the post with non-LED based questions.

Final notes: The reverse lights WILL need to have a resistor put on the passenger side wires so they don't glow dimly when off. The car has a very small amount of active current on the wires even when the reverse gear isn't engaged. Keep this in mind. If this makes you feel all tingly and not (wo)manly enough to attempt to put a resistor on, ask here for help.
Not all these LEDs are CANBUS enabled, so the warning light will go off. I prefer not to care about the warning light anymore, as the difference in brightness these LEDs make compared to the halogen bulbs is pretty big and a nice addition to the car. If you really do want to get rid of the warning light out indicator, just attach a resistor to the exterior lights. The SIDE MARKER and FRONT PARKING LIGHTS LEDs are CANBUS enabled however!! Also the lights inside the car are NOT CANBUS controlled, so they won't cause the light out indicator to run.
