ULTIMATE LIGHT MOD

I have changed almost every light bulb in my 06 MCS

I posted the pictures on a different website:

Tried to look, but was quickly hijacked to a page in Polish and had trouble getting out. Something wrong here.

Also tried to look but persistent pop-up ads made picture viewing impossible

I just clicked on the 'X' to close the hijack. No problems here.

Lights look great!

Hmm, tried again and it worked just fine. Go figure.

What is the uber-bright dash light for?

Looks, nice. The only thing I see wrong is if you cruise down the road with the scoop light on. Red and blue are no-no's on the front of a moving car around here.

BTW, Firefox with the adblock extension makes the page viewable with no pop-ups.

I know but the blue neon light looks very nice and when ever I see police I turn it off because I have an additional switch, never got a ticket for the past 6 months, for the neon light. Hope I don't get one soon.

Sorry about the website and all the popups and stuff, but I made the site for free, so there is a price to pay for it!

The parking/running lights are just 2825 bulbs right? Where did you get the LED bulbs?

2825 is more commonly known in the US as 194. The LED bulbs are widely available in many varieties. Search for "194 led" on motors.ebay.com

I live in Chiacgo, but I got a friend who is a trucker so on his way to Cal. he bought me a bunch. They are nice beacuse they are LEDS so they eat a lot less power and are very bright.

Any chance I could get a daytime picture of the switch panel? I want to see how the switch for the neon looks.
