did you buy a kit to do that? or did you figure out which LEDs would fit so you could do that?

Could you specific what size LEDs you used for each bulb replacement?
Or did you just buy a car LED kit?

I know you can buy the led kits. I would like to do that but I wonder how hard it is.

Later

i just think its funny how people have such drastic differences in priorities for their cars. I dont have air conditioning, power steering, cruise control, heat, my rear windows dont go down, my cigarette lighter doesnt work, i have no dome lights. the last thing im worried about is making my interior look like a circus. nothing meant by that. just think stock looks best in most cases.

Sounds like somebodies car is much more fun to drive than anyone else who has posted in this thread. I agree that function is better than form, but it is also nice to have a comfortable daily driver too.
