Shameless plug here..... But I have done a lot of research by buying different brands, colors and light diffusers. So far the ones that I sell on http://www.dfwdmc.com seem to be the best. They are bright white and emit the light from the sides using a cone filter. The plastic within the center console faceplate in tinted in an aqua color, the original lamps used have a yellow color and make the face seem sort of green, but with the white bulbs it looks more blue - which I feel looks a little better and clean. The main advantage here is that it is taking some of the strain off of the headlamp switch and relay, as well as removing ALL heat from the face and inside the console. The intense heat from the original lamps will burn your fingers if you touch it, these 7 lamps heat up the inside of the console and heat up the radio too. Using the LED's illuminates these issues and you will also never have to change them again. I will say, they are not bright enough for you to notice them on in the direct sunlight like the originals, but they look spectacular at night and that is what matters. So rather you buy them from me or not, you want bright white, cone diffused side emitting lights. I sell them packaged and ready to go with free shipping for $19.99 I also have lights for the dash cluster, the doors, the trunk and engine bay. The festoon replacement bulbs for the trunk and engine bay are great if you show your car. These are super bright and use almost zero power. The most important purchase you can make is the door LED's. You can leave your doors, trunk and engine bay open for WEEKS and never see much of a drop in your battery - no kidding.
