Surface Mount LED
Hello everyone! I am new to the Honda Community and I know nothing about Hondas. I used to drive a '06 Hyundai Tiburon till it got totaled, and now I'm a new Honda Civic owner. Anyway, I've done my search through the forum and I couldn't find anything to what I was looking for. Forgive me if I didn't search thoroughly enough, I'm still trying to get the hang of this forum as it's very different from my previous forum.
So, my question is, does anyone have any insights to where I could get some SMD (Surface Mount LED) for my Civic Si? I'm not talking about just the LED's, there is a difference in the SMD and the LED, and that I know much. I prefer getting the SMD because they're a lot brighter than the LED's. Any input, suggestions, ideas are greatly appreciated.
Also, I do have my flame suit on, if this has been discussed already and I just suck at searching. Thanks for all of your help!

Re: Surface Mount LED
Can they be used for interior and exterior. SMD are just a lot brighter than just the LED's. I mean, there is nothing wrong with the LED's but I would just prefer getting something that is brighter and more durable.
I'm just have some difficulty to finding these on the market for my Civic Si.

Re: Surface Mount LED
uhhhhhhhh maybe we should ask what are you using them for? are you trying to mod your headlights to look like audi's, or ad some interior mood lighting, or what?

Re: Surface Mount LED
Interior lighting could be like the dome lights. Exterior lightings could be used for reverse back lights, rear license plate, turn signal. Again, it's like the LED's but brighter. I'm pretty sure SMD's cost more as well. If I can't find any, I suppose I can just get the LED's.
