Suncoastparts LED light kit (photos)

Excellent kit and fairly easy to install.

Suncoastparts provides written instruction on the website, however there are a couple of videos on youtube which make the process crystal clear. Yoy need no more than 30 minutes for everything and that's being really careful not to break anything.

In addition to the interior LED kit, i also installed the rear license plate LED kit.

My apologies for the low quality photos, however you can immediately tell the difference from the old bulbs...

trunk space before




trunk space after




engine bay after





Interior

I got the kit as well and installed it about a month ago. I was puzzled as to why they sent the full bulb assemply for the footwell lights - with the old bulb in it! I had to do my own swap-out to the LEDs and had to carefully bend the socket clips so the silly bulb would stay inside the socket without coming loose. I had figured Suncoast would have done it for me as part of the "kit" but it seems not - oh well, it looks good as the final product.

yeah in the beginning i thought i got the wrong part! LOL! But the housings had LED bulbs in. They look like they are built in LEDs in the housing, not just a bulb.
