Mustang V8 5.0 GT DIB due sometime soon hopefully!
I'm so confused by all the LED lights upgrades that i need, Does anyone have the sizes and where there for?

Also What Brightness is best! I was thinking a Cool(ice) White

DS3 for HID?
P13W for side lights

Is it easier to buy the DD interior kit?

Thanks in advance
I'm the same. If someone could pull everything needed for a full swap out in one post it would be massively appreciated.

These are what I bought..

Reverse and rear fog.....these are a tight fit but they do go...

Reverse and rear fog alternative... You can use these instead of the above, not as bright but not such a tight fit.....you need the 10 led version

Boot light
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/151787033...48&var=450983544073&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

Glove box light... There are some plastic lugs in the fitting, they need cutting out with a small part of pliers

Map lights. & front side lights.... 6 led version... Tight fit in map lights, but do fit.

Has anyone had any luck yet installing the Diode Dynamics tri-bar LED DRLs? Can it be done?

Taking the headlights apart isn't the bit that worries me, it's wiring them up that has me nervous. Still can't find much info about what I can wire them up to

I'm sure I saw someone talking about it on here a few weeks ago, but I can't seem to find the post again.

Diode Dynamics tri-bar can be done, but I highly not recommend the version they have now. The LEDs are not bright enough and can't be used as DRL.
EU rules requires high powered LEDs to be used as DRL.
The kit from Diode Dynamics is only for a cosmetic upgrade.

On their Sponsor area, they talked about a new version for the EU/AU/UK market with high powered LEDs (with sequential turn signal and they stop the colored option on them), but still no informations from them when they should be available.

Try to search the forum for : Ian Whu + oven + chef , then you'll find the perfect guy to mod your headlights ... :lol:

I'll take that as a concise 'don't go there for now' much appreciated

No....couldn't be bothered with those......:)..... I just swapped out the bulbs I actually used.:lol:

My cost including the DRL's from Holland was less than ÂŁ60 quid, which compares well with online suppliers, wanting well over ÂŁ100

Will try this today, as the DRL finally arrived yesterday.

I have a couple of spare DD interior lights that I think they will fit as sidelights....will give a try and post a pic in the DLR EU thread

Mission impossible guys.....

Could only secure tight drivers side, because I wasn´t able to make rotate the bulb on passenger side....is kind of tight, but not fully 180 rotated....

7) Taking the LED bulb, locate it in the hole making sure the middle plastic locating piece sits on the same side as you noted in step 6 as this will make fitting it quicker instead of having to spin the bulb around to locate it. Push the bulb in tight and at the same time twist it clockwise and you should feel it lock (I say should as I felt it more so on the drivers side than I did on the passenger side but all appears to be ok)
BTW any ideas on how to reach for the front sidelights? would want to change them to LED but I was not able to get the bulb from the bumper....
