When you unlock the truck they should come on along with your reverse lights and drl's at night

10zin please show some pics of the LEDs when their done/installed. Im going to do a complete swap of LEDs on the tailights, brakelights, 3rd light and interior in their stock housings instead of buying new complete brakelights. Im sure these will look great on the perimiters. Just curious to see what their like. Hope you got your alternator/battery situation squared away.

ok i will take some pics 2nite and they really look nice btw. i could only install one of the permimiter lights in cuz the set of led festoon bulbs i got 1 of them didnt work but im getting a free one shipped out from the seller. i forgot about the door lights on the inside so i need to get bulbs for those but i need to take it out and see how much of a clearance i have cuz i want to put in a long type of led bulb.

 

and yea i got my alternator / battery issue fixed....... or so it looks like it. put in a new alternator from advanced auto.... they had a $50 off 150 coupon + their part is brand new and made from remy delco. not that duralast crap from autozone lol. b4 with the old alt my voltage would fluctuate even when sitting idle would drop to 13.2 and then go back up to 14 but now i get a constant 14.0ish on the dash and hooked up the meter and it says the same thing. i do need to change out my compustar alarm as i think the brain isnt working. went to remotestart my car and it wouldnt start :(

 

 

 

 

also i got my led's from amazon and the sellers seem great and willing to help u if u have problems with the lights here are the links to the ones i got

 

i used 1 of these in the dome light VERY VERY BRIGHT!!!!!!

using these in the dome. these fit in perfect in with the reflecting housing on the inside of the dome!

and then i got these for the perimiter lighting. u can also put these in ur dome they are bright also.

DONT GET THESE KIND that im about to post below as they will not fit in ur licence plate or ur dome lights i tried cuz i had a few of these laying around

 

http://www.amazon.co...ils_o06_s00_i00

 

 

 

 

as for the door lights im gonna look and see if these can fit by testing out if the ones that cant fit in the dome will fit in the door lights cuz they have the same base just that this one is longer.

I bet it does. When my truck is done being worked on we'll have to meet up. Should be late June early July when its running, then again I am not 100% sure. Im going to try to meet up with another MA member in framingham at the british beer company. We'll figure something out.
