I have a D80 and I'm out on the peninsula. If you guys are going to meet up let me know. I'd love to bring some of my stuff and my S4.

Thanks!
Yea it should work, although I don't know what bulbs you would use to do it since they may be different than the A4/S4.

An S4 Meet and Greet with a photoshoot would be fun. Maybe when the rainy weather clears out.

Chris, I think you need to take your car on a photoshoot. I was planning to this weekend, but its suppose to rain all the way through to next week sunday!

BTW, know any good parking garages in Fremont? I don't want to have to drive to the Eastbay where I know a few good ones.
I really would like to do that. The weather and my schedule haven't been allowing me to really give my car a good bath and take pictures. I've been washing it regularly, to get the dust and bird crap, etc. off of it, but haven't been spending a lot of time with the details. Once I know it'll be nice for a few days and I've figured out how to work my new camera, I'm going to take some nice pictures.

As far as parking garages in Fremont ... I'm at a loss. I don't really know of any. I'd like to get some "inside" pictures like that and some exterior ones too with a decent background.

Where did you buy the LED lights, how much did they cost, and was it an easy install?

Bought the lights at superbrightleds.com.

Overall cost, around $60 to change out 4 map lights (front and rear), 2 vanity lights, the dome light, and puddle lights. I can't be exact because it took me a few orders to get everything exactly the way I wanted so I ended up spending extra.

Very easy to install, minus the puddle lights. I'm still figuring this one out as it looks like I need to remove the door panels.

Here's the info I found on Audizine

http://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php?t=282731

Don't heed all the bulb recommendations made there, I found that the colors do not match. But the post offers some good incite and pictures to compare. The lights the OP used in his car are Natural White.

Hey I ordered all the same LEDs for my car. For the back 2 I had to order lights in "white", not "cool white". Is that what you got?

When you say back 2, do you mean the 2 map lights for the rear passengers? If so, I ordered those in cool white. Same bulb as the map lights in the front.

@ShadowJet

What led bulb did you use for the puddle lights, any pics?

Thanks!
