One question .. how afect the let / circuit the open close task if you set the dome light with the doors ?
 
tapage, i do not understand your question. Could you say that again in a different way please.


I really like the look and praise of this product and am considering ordering a set, but i am curious if there is some lights that you make that i could mount in the engine compartment. I would like to get a switch like the ones they use for car starters to turn on a couple lights in the engine compartment.

Works exactly like the tungsten bulbs, comes on right away with the door when set to door. Just brighter :)

I asked George that same question and I believe he recommended these: Tasklight

I was thinking I might install two in the engine bay - that coupled with the flexible heads would give me good light almost anywhere in the engine bay.

The on/off task does not affect the life expectancy of the LET .. ?

Ah - I've deciphered the question :)

If I understand it, you're asking whether the LED cycling on/off with the door opening/closing will affect life expectancy? The answer is no, you can open/shut the door until it falls off the hinges and the LED will still happily turn on/off with the other door and you can start the cycle again until the next door falls off the hinges :)

cheers,
george.

The last I heard, about a month ago, George was not going to be selling anymore. Supplier problems.
He had a waiting list for the last of them. I was on it but he sent me an- e-mail apologizing because he ran out. Said he might start making them again if he solved his supplier problem.
 
got mine in and installed both front and rear"cargo"; had to drill couple of small holes for the cargo light but although a pain was very doable......just need a new drill bit so the bit won't "wander"; anyone install one on a fj55?

I installed mine on the front with no issues. I just could not get the rear to work for some reason. The front has a very nice flexible mount which made the install a piece of cake. The rear has no flex or spring to it and no matter what I did to achieve a solid mount there was no joy. I even pulled the one from my 60 to see if there was a difference. Even though I had what appeared to be a firm mount, I could not get the cargo to work. I decided not to bother with drilling. I just installed the second led in the dome for the 60. These are an excellent mod and provide a much better lighting situation for the dome light. I don't use the cargo enough to get crazy with soldering or drilling holes. I am happy with the dome improvement. I can highly recommend this mod but if someone does it, you might want to think twice about doing the cargo.

I got the new version...

I can't even begin to tell you what a difference it makes. BRIGHT white light where before it was dim. Installed dome in less than 2 minutes. George is super responsive, super fast shipping, all in all a great product and by far the best upgrade under $50.:cheers:
 
:wrench:drilled a couple of very small holes in the metal "flex" part of the festoon socket slightly closer the the end of it so I could bend the metal festoon socket a bit and get good contact.........wow:bounce:.............awsome improvement:bounce2:.......thanks George;:clap: now how about the dome light on a 55??:hhmm::cheers:

I just installed some philips head screws and washers into the existing holes to accomodate the shorter module. As an added bonus, the slots in the philips head keeps the modude from rotating.

George, I got the two LED dome lights in the 80 series the other day, they are perfect! The stock lights didnt throw much light and with tinted windows it was hard enough to see in there during the day.
Now I can see around easily to find anything in the back, but they're not so bright it affects night driving.
I gotta say these work perfect and they should have come like this from the factory.
Thanks Again!
