Ordered interior LEDs... Anyone considering it should read this.

Ordered interior LEDs... Anyone considering it should read this.
Well, I made a mistake and jumped the gun on my order... For my HVAC controls I was ordering some #74 replacement white LED bulbs from ebay...
There was an option to buy more and save on shipping so I went nuts
I bought another set of #74 bulbs for the doors and then another set to use on on my shifter plate...
Then I thought, "Well hell, might as well finish her off..." So, I got on here and did a search to see what people were using for the map and dome lights... That result got me to order two 194 bulbs for the maplights and a 214 bulb for the dome lights...
Well, that was WRONG because apparently 1998's (and who knows what other years) are different than 2002's (and who knows what other years)... I actually used the 214 bulb I ordered for the dome light in my map light.
I'll probably use the extra 194's for my glove box and license plate...
In the meantime I just ordered another 214 bulb for my map light and a 212-2 for my dome light. Everything looks great so far though

they changed up some crap in 99 or 2000 where guage clusters are no longer interchangeable either, rearview mirrors are differnt. I just soldered a LED light bar into my dome light instead of plug and play. Main reason to get more light output!
