easy to install, and realy all you need is a pocket knife.. or flat head screwdriver to do this.

checked my mail box on sunday.. and it must have been sitting there since yesterday.. i was so exited....

took me 2 minutes to install.. and i can't wait to see it at night.
using the regular connector and not having to splice anything makes this a much easier and faster install.

check it out, for better pictures on the install!

ok, i installed it and everythings great, but i encounter some problem afterward.

After the light has been turn off, theres still a small amount of light visible.. I mean the car is off, key off the ignition, theres still a small amount of light on..

My concern is will this drain the battery since it's taking the power from the battery all the time instead of being OFF ?

i dont wanna go away for the weekend then come back and see my battery is dead cause of the power being drain from the LED lights.

heres some pics of the problem, some pics were taken without flash, as you can see, the light is not that visible...

thanks for the help..

ICE: There's a very small current constantly running through the dome light, for what i dont know, but its there. The stock halogen bulb cant get hot enough to show you that there's current, so it appears to be off, even though its still technically ON. LED's on the other hand, require VERY LITTLE current to light up even the slightest bit, which you have just found out

It's ok, it wont drain your battery. My car sat for a week and started right up with no hesitation what so ever. The led's pull SO LITTLE current that you could actually LEAVE THE DOME LIGHT ON for a few days and it would STILL start right up without a problem... This is of course ignoring the fact that the dome light has a self timer where it wont stay on for longer than X amount of time while the car is off anyways... but you get the idea...

you knwo what the funny part is...thats the exact same 3 led's that stay lit in my car too, lol

I would like it if ANYONE who has purchased one of my dome lights, or one of my third brake lights, to leave some feedback for me

please leave feedback here: www.srt-4store.com/feedback.php

I think you meant to say incandescent.

Don't forget to send out my damn dome light.

I'll be going down Saturday where my car is stored, and would like to be bringing this with me.
