Title: New LED interior lights
Post by: Teo10 on October 17, 2011, 02:04:59 pm

Hey All!

Looking to get some nice bright white LED's for the inside lights of the Geetai! Ive looked on ebay and found a couple but wondering for other people that have done this, where did you buy yours from? Looking for the full set for both front and back lights!

Thanks :happy2:

Look no further mate - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/140547920140?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I have done the upgrade, didn't go for this kit as my set up is slightly different (FF sunroof) but I have the same bulbs.  Soooo much better than OE, nice crisp white light.

HTH, Lee.

Does an old filament still work in that socket?

Just noticed on mine that one of the rear roof bulb holders is a bit dodgy, slight movement knocks the bulb off.

In saying that it was from a different supplier!!
