anyone know where i can find a brighter dome light for my celi? the stock one barely does anything. my shift knob creates more light than it does.

I picked up a bulb that really did the trick. Don't exactly remember the brand, but it was foreign. Nokya, maybe. I'll look into it.

check my above post. this is a single end push-and-twist bulb. it does fit. i'm running it right now. the first time i put it in, easily could tell the difference. worth the $$

No, but i've seen a kit fitted into a car's reverse lights. Imagine, if someone is tailgating you, put the car in reverse while SITTING at a red light and blind the hell out of them! Sweet!

it was just somethin to do that was cheap, plus everyone loves how it looks in the daytime without the light too. Its the first thing ppl notice.

it's possible but not very good for the bulb if you have it turn on when you open the doors as it won't have time to warm up. Also constanly turning off and on will shorten the bulb's life span.. but yes possible rofl
