"Best" is mostly an opinion thing. There isn't really a brand known to be the best.

Sylvania are generally good bulbs. I used their Silverstar line for a while and was pretty happy.

Hella bulbs are available through TireRack. I used those last time and was pretty happy.

PIAA are also available at TireRack. They're pretty high-end cost-wise, and they have a great reputation.

I just want to get the brightest ones next to HID's

Just remember to stick to the stock wattage. Some folks buy a higher watt bulb and melt the harness.

I've used all three of the ones I mentioned. I was personally happiest with the PIAA Extreme White bulbs, but everyone's opinion differs.

Does anyone know the bulb that it is the dome lights? How do you take off the cover and what is the bulb number on a blue led for replacement? What do I need to know when buying the replacement?

Please update the first post with the revised quote above thanks
To remove dome lights take a something really thin and strong like a knife or flat head and just pry it off extremly gently, its very easy to remove.
And trunk and dome lights use 3022 Bulbs. I currently have blue led blubs on the dome lights and in the trunk. I will be installing side turn lights next which use 168/194Bulbs. glad to help

Also, has anyone replaced the dome and trunk bulbs with LEDs or any other differently colored bulb? If so, what are the specifications (socket type, etc) besides wattage, which is listed already.

Thanks in advance.

I put a green 12" neon in my trunk. just hook up positive wire to positive on the trunk bulb wires, and negative to negative. what i did is just cut the wires and spliced in the new one and left the bulb and plastic cover on there so i don't have any small, loose parts around my garage.

tunerzimage.com has these bulbs called halo there 55w and 7200k which is like a light blue it supposed to be h.i.d color n its pretty damn close i have them n love them n they were only 40 buks

[Eagles GTS]

Hey, do you guys think these would be ok for my low beams cuz they draw 55 watts and stock is 51 watts. Will a 4 watts make a huge difference and melt my wires?

Does anyone know if Sylvania makes an H11 Silverstar/Ultra? Everytime I see the front of my car it drives me nuts - nice white headlights, crappy yellow fogs...

I am wondering the same too, could someone please enlighten us?

Thanks!

[pikahasalancer]

i talked to a guy from autozone and he said the watts make all the difference and stopped me from buying some 55w bulbs.

Is the dome light the same bulb as the map light?

How many lights are in the trunk?

Also, we have a light where the ash tray is, what's the bulb for that? is that easy to change?

[Blacksheepdj]

Dome light and map light should be the same thing, as far as I know.

One light in the trunk.

Not sure on the ash tray one... I don't see it on the bulb list from the owner's manual...
