internal led lighting

[park0]

So i;m trying to install Blue LEDS in my VZ MY06.

The lights above the rear licence plate work, the lights above the rear door work, but i cannot get the light above my head to work. I have tried two different brands of the 4LED lights to no avail. The LED fits perfectly but does not switch on.

Anybody else have trouble with this? Should i try a different type of led?

Go to this thread from StealthCalais. He has just completed the conversion and listed the LED globe types on post #56 of his thread.

LED's only work when put in one way. have you turned the globe itself around?

quick question, are white LEDS above your number plate illegal in Victoria?

should work if u plug it str8 in r u sure the globe isnt blown

tried 2 different sets of globes now.. no good

i went down to autobarn and i spotted a Monza LED kit (6 led strip with converters for pretty much any connection)

so i bought the last blue one they had, installed it in the left map light and hurrah! much brighter than a single led would be!

unfortunately they only had one so still waiting for it to come in stock =\

from what i've heard it's only illegal if you cannot read the rear license plate. so leds should be fine.. (just what i've heard and most likely wrong)

So I just replaced my lights withs LEDs.... Which fuse is for the interior lights?
