These cars are temperamental with LEDs. I was able to do the City lights, and side
markers without setting the bulb-out MIL. When I put LEDs in the tails, I get the MIL
for a bad bulb.
PLATE lights, work fine also. Make sure the lights are OFF when you pull the plate housings, they
will short to the trunk metal and blow the fuse., Turn the lights off, take them out and let them
hang. Remove the incandescent bulbs, then turn the lights on. One at a time, place the
LED in till it lights up, then you know you got the right polarity. When both are done, turn the lights
off. Then put the housings back in the trunk lid, then turn the lights on to verify. If you can find
good COB style paddle lights to fit in, use those. Using LEDs with a half round lens at the top
does not give enough light unless you can find the phillips ones, not the Sylvania, they are not
bright enough. Use ones like this for the plate lights:
They have to be good ones, I bought TEN of them from China, they burned out within weeks.
Interior, also fine, but you'll see the LEDs will be on VERY VERY LOW when you turn the
car off. Also fine, that current is there with regular bulbs too, just not enough to illuminate
them where as LEDs are low power, and they do stay lit, but very very low. Does not drain
the battery.
You need GOOD LEDs, not cheap Chinese ones that cost next to nothing; they stop
working or start flickering within a few months.
Do not use H7 LEDs as your LOW beams, and if you do for highs, get the brightest
ones you can, GOOD brand name expensive ones...
