This is what I used for LED's.

DealExtreme: $17.81 Cree P4 XR-E 7090 (WD) Emitter on Star (5-Pack)

Be aware the LED's come from Hong Kong and take about 3-4 weeks to arrive. !!

For this set up off the dome light, you MUST USE 4 LEDS !!!! If you use 1, 2, or just 3 LED's then they will burn out !!! 4 is the magic #.

The lights in the foot wells are OUTSTANDING. I Super glued them in.

Reference the Homelink.

I relied on the pictures. Check link a couple post before this.

It was a little difficult to line up the main body of the unit with the cover that has the buttons. But after working at it, it happened.

It great showing it off to other Smart car owners. To see their reactions to everything I've done is great.
