so is everyone just replacing the HVAC bulbs with red LEDS and the ***** light up fine with no hot spots? Also just curious what LED bulbs you all are buying and from where.

I did mine by fabbing adapters from the stock *****. No glue and extremely tight. If you have Facebook here is a link.

Nice! I ordered a set. I will most likely fab up some 3d printed adapter. If they turn out alright, I will sell some.

Let us know how it goes.

I drew up the adapter about a year ago, but have not bought a printer yet and not sure how strong the printed parts would be compared to the stock parts I modded.
