Finished this swap up a while back, but haven't posted pics or anything until now. Basically, I have replaced every single interior light with an LED variant. I first got the idea when I noticed both of my courtesty lamps under the dash were completely missing. I had a few extra 194 LED bulbs from my Cobra, so I threw them in the sockets to see how it looked. Ended up liking it, so I made some purchases from superbrightleds.com, and have since completed it. In total, here is what I replaced, and the part #'s incase anyone wants to do the same thing. I'll organize them by bulb size..

www.superbrightleds.com

194/168 sockets = WLED-x5 in cool white (WLED-CW5)
-under dash on both driver and passenger side
-both front driver and passenger door panels
-both map lights
-license plate lamps

912-921 sockets = 921-x12 Wedge Base LED bulb in cool white (921-cw12)
-underhood
-trunk

Festoon bulbs = RL4410-xHP9 Rigid Loop Festoon bulb (RL4410-CWHP9)
-headliner, on left and right side. I pulled these out and measured them, and got the ones that were the correct length, and mated up to my factory + and - connections

That's all I have for now. In the future I want to pull out the dash, and find the size of every twist in socket, and then get those size sockets with Blue LED's, and completely hardwire them myself so they get the correct power output. That is months away though, as I just spent a ton of time replacing all the dash bulbs back to the factory teal. Also, behind my gauge cluster, I am running the 194 LED's like used above, but in red so they accent my needles a bit better. Looks kinda neat.

Enough talking... here's a couple pics:

Just be careful with them. I had 14 of there weather proof marker lights on my 00 silverado. One of them started on fire. My gilfriend was in a drive through when it happened, luckily the guy at the window noticed and ran out with an extinguisher.

Dont forget the lights in your EATC! Ive done this as well, except I hand made them (lots of soldering), becareful with your license plate lights, apparently mine looked "blue" to an officer and I got ticketed :(

Can you take pics of your LEDs at night? I am considering replacing all of lights with LEDs.

I too have Superbright LEDs as my plates lights and corners.
