    I have full LED conversions on both my 04' Colorado and my 05' Silverado. The only thing I can tell you is you get what you pay for, Ebay bulbs are cheaper but you have to put inline resisters in place. I buy Jamstrait bulbs or Putco are very high quality, as they have the resistor built into the base of the bulb. I have LED's in my projector headlights, led reverse lighjts, dome light, dash lights, blah blah blah..

    Lighting is my passion.

    So where do you get your LED's from? I like the led's also but when I had them on my license plate, reverse light, and drl's they did not work out. They were from ebay, but the in-cab ebay leds worked out fine. Post up link or pm me, thenks.

    I bought most of them from stylin concepts, there website is www.stylintrucks.com
    Summit racing also carries them as well, if you buy them directly from putco they are $80.00 a pair, stylin concepts is around $60.00 a pair but mine are still working after 6 years, so I think they're worth it. Recon also have some awesome LEDs, I got my interior ones from them.

    One thing you have to watch is mixing manufactures! Reckons white led is bluish color, and putco is pure white. For a nice clean look try to stick with one or the other, check out putco tower bulbs. They have 3157 bulbs which have over 100 LEDs in one bulb.

    Like stated above, I think splurging a bit and buying quality parts is well worth it in this department. I've got LEDs through out in my truck as well, they're from superbrightleds.com and they seem to be hit or miss... some of them have been good for over a year, and some will fail within a few weeks.

    haha and by decent, I mean I only have to replace the 194s only a couple times a year LOL. I have only bought two colors, blue and white. Those did ok, but since I'm getting out of the import scene with my truck and putting it back to stockish colors in the interior, I won't have much of a use of that site.

    I have never heard of that company before, but the only way to find out is buy them. Like I said before this is not an area to skimp on. Here's a video of the back of my truck, and you will see that I love LED's!!!
