I never consider anything truly "mine," until AFTER I've spilled coffee on it. It's rare that I don't have a cup of coffee in my hand.
I adhere to the 'spilled beer' rule. You know, since I would never drink coffee in my truck and take a chance on spilling the hot cup in my lap. :cheers:

Ordered and replaced the warm white ambient interior lighting with red from Paragoptics costing $200 and made in the USA. No cheap Chinese crap put together by god knows who. Pretty easy to install and looks way better than the white. The iPhone makes it look way brighter than it really is but it’s brighter than the warm white it replaced. Took about 3 hours taking my time and the door panels are a pain to get off. Replaced a total of 19 LED’s on circuit boards.

Are they on only when opening and closing a door or do you keep it on?

And did you change the overhead cabin lights?

I bought a set of LED and changed the overhead cabin lights and didn't like the harsh brightness of the LED. I preferred the soft yellow factory, but they are not bright enough, hence why I tried LED.

Can you get a softer LED to mimic the factory yellow, just brighter?

Looks great!

They are on when my parking lights or headlights are on and they come on when I open the door regardless. You don’t really notice it in the day time unless you look at the dash. I left the overhead the warm white because it helps to see the center console when driving if I need see something there. The replacement white they have is brighter and whiter which is why I didn't get it. I'm really diggin the red now after a few weeks and it’s not overpowering. Thanks.
