[QUOTE="Reptar, post: 351423, member: 1883"] That is definitely a help. As I mentioned I was able to figure it out no problem by process of elimination on the bulbs, but labels or pics definitely help ease the process, and reading of guys breaking clips on the dome lights, etc. it's always helpful knowing the tricks to remove parts. I'll still extend my offer to write up instructions with photos for you if we can resolve all the issues with my kit. No, I was missing all 3 rear dome lights, and I got the wrong taillight LEDs. It seems some other members did too but still used them anyway. I'll resummarize what my kit needs: 1- 3 missing rear dome light LEDs 2- 4 Correct taillight LEDs (white/white instead of white/amber) 3- Missing visor light LEDs 4- Larger cargo light LEDs 5- Larger reverse light LEDs As for the truck differences we have seemed to confirm it, moon roof trucks get 1 rear dome light, non-moon roof trucks get 3 rear dome lights. Since the kit was advertised as a *COMPLETE* interior/exterior kit, my opinion is those visor LEDs should be included. $250 is a LOT of money for 21 LEDs and 6 resistors, and including 2 mini LEDs for the visors shouldn't be more than $1 more in parts. They are smaller than the license plate bulbs. Speaking of which, the license plate LEDs are also smaller than ones that can fit in there, but I'm okay with my tag lights not being super bright, don't need it any easier for the po-po to read them lol. Don't get me wrong, the current ones are "good", but they're not GREAT. More LEDs = more light, otherwise why wouldn't all of the lights in the kit be the single LED ones like the tag lights. The 5 LED ones fit great in the front dome light and the front corners, but in the cargo lamp and reverse light they're undersized. I attached a photo of the size difference in the bulbs. Here's what I expected for the cargo lights...13w will fit in there There is a 6 page thread on FRF that has several other options, and they're all far brighter than the tiny 5 LED ones in the kit. Here's what i expected in my kit for a reverse LED. Not sure if his pics will show, but he only used 5w LEDs and they are WAY brighter than the tiny 5 LED ones in the kit I have now. I really appreciate working with us, there is a lot of potential for a 1 stop shop kit, I just think it needs to fit a $50k truck. I PM'ed you my email and cell number, along with the 2 ways we can finally close this all out, can you please call me tomorrow and let me know how we can proceed forward? I'm not impatient, but this mod has been in the works for almost a month since the time I paid and I want my truck finished 100%, I'll throw the kid at Christmas reference out there again lol. Going through posts back and forth takes too long, so I think a quick call will make it easier for both of us. PM sent.
