Sedan Chat Thread
No, you're reading that wrong, Nick. The amber plate bulbs were cheap LED's purchased from some nameless Hong Kong vendor off eBay many years ago. Ditto for the white LED's in my courtesy lights, and the panel of SMD's in my trunk. Those reverse light bulbs might be yours... could be. I have no idea.
My LED bulbs in the dome lighting, those I most definitely and personally purchased from you back in September. Very happy with the warm white look. Better than OEM, but not as blindingly annoying as pure white.

just ordered my autokits diffuser in carbon, and - more contentiously - an experiment; picked up the slightly larger mt. Fuji from a QX56 to relocate a bit lower / compensate for the debadged infiniti lettering, and balance out the trunk a little better. Hopefully it doesn't look too ILX-ish.
After that, the only mod left I have to do is coupe seats..the driver's side bolster in my car - 70k miles - is NOT holding up well. Seems like one can get a set of low mile coupe seats for only about 1200 bucks.
I'm willing myself to not look in to FI. Might just have to pick up a toy this summer - I never should have gotten rid of my s2000. 135i roadster, anyone?

Had a blast for half a day in a 135i, the DCT was so much quicker than my 7AT and damn that little ride was on rails.
That was me. I've redone all my interior lighting with DD LEDs I just haven't put in the glove box light yet cuz I'm lazy. I really like the amber LEDs though they're not as pronounced on mine due to the construction of my plate frame / holder.
any recommendations on which ones to get that will fit in the reverse light housing and give a good light output?

However, you're in luck, because Diode Dynamics is hanging out here, and if anyone is an expert on LED bulbs, I suspect he is. What do you say, Nick? Got any advice for Mik3G37S here?
On a completely unrelated topic... look what you can do with the OEM Power Steering Cap, a sander and some Krylon Satin Black Plastic paint. The cap is typically covered with all kinds of English and Japanese text embossed on the surface.
I think this looks much better.

To show my ignorance, what's the difference with coupe seats? I was looking at sport seats, maybe I'm thinking the wrong direction?
There's a guy here in Memphis putting an RB in an S2k, should be interesting when done.
Just popped it back on the car, and OMG IT'S FREAKING COLD OUT!!! 9* Fahrenheit right now. Seriously, nine degrees. Damn.
Happy New Years, Guys. Here's a video that always makes me LOL.
I'm going to be playing with some color for my caps and engine bay, hopefully I can find everything soon. Geez o man, I was complaining earlier that it was only in the 40s today!
That's a great vid!

I like those reverse LEDs I need to get me some finally and then I'll be completely Incandescent bulb-less , I'm only interested in 5k though as 6k is not for my liking. I love pure white

I'm interested to see how that Mt Fuji looks. I considered it and depending on how yours looks may go for it. I don't know, I kind of like the a$$ end now but...

It is debadged yes. It will probably stay that way but I'm tempted to see what it looks like.
For now I need to slow down until I get the rest of the planned / in progress work done. Gotta get these boxes out of the apartment and make some room! Then I need to list the extra rims, tires and calipers and I'll feel better about pushing forward again.

I have Diode Dynamics stage 2 and have had no problems. I ran outside real quick to get a picture...

Buffalo Trace the previous week. Four Roses next week. My sister is getting married in April and her reception is at Woodford.
There's not a ton to do when Keeneland isn't in session so the bourbon trail is a lot of fun.
