i know you're searching for the B13, but i did this for b14. i heard the LED headlights through this company are amazing, maybe best hands down but check out my thread just posted pics of interior. visit v-led's @ V-LEDS.COM | LED Dome, Map, License Plate, Reverse, DRL, Turn Signal, Brake Lights

this is my thread for v-led, have more info on there

Hmm. My bad. Maybe I will look into HIDs for the headlights and LEDs for everything else? Like I said, I know nothing about this lighting stuff. Anyone do the center gauges near the shifter in LEDs on the b13? I see there's threads for the b14.

I've done pretty much a full LED conversion on my b14.. cluster, hvac, dome light, license plate lights, trunk, tail lights, turn signals (and the flasher required for them) and I got all of em through superbrightleds.com. They have a link to sylvania's site where you can pick your car and cross-reference every bulb and find a led bulb on their site for it so it's pretty easy to find everything that way.

Just wondering about the dome light. I see 158 is the code but did you use the
WLED Miniature Wedge Base bulbs with High Power SMD LEDs (WLED-xHP10-DAC) WLED-xHP10-DAC Specifications?

The 158/168/194/912(center brake lights) are all the same size wedge base with different bulb sizes/brightnesses, but the dome light is not a wedge base bulb. You'd have to use a "festoon" bulb either 31 or 37 mm, the one I got has 2 high power SMD LEDs but I can't seem to find that one on superbrightleds... I know that 31 will fit but the clips might bend enough to fit a 37. I'll have to look at mine tonight.

No need to bash people for running what they choose. If you don't like it, try educating them rather than bashing them.

I have ebay hid's in my car with no glare gaurds and have never been flashed once. They're angled perfectly.

I've removed the nonsense from your post. No need to get into a heated argument...

That would be much appreciated! Thanks!

You are a damn nuisance on the road with your bright ass glaring lights.

Projector housings do in fact exist for our cars.. either the cheap ebay halo ones or a projector retrofit (there's a writeup somewhere around here on that and I believe LIUSPEED sells or at one point did sell them) but I do agree with you on that it is annoying as hell to see people running HIDs without projectors, I see a lot of that around here unfortunately

from top to bottom: stock, 3022-W9 (went out), 3022-CWHP2 which is the one I'm using now and which I don't think they carry anymore. The closest I can find is 3022-CWHP4 which is 4-led rather than 2-led, but costs the same so why the hell not. They are all 31mm I don't know if a 37 would fit in there.
