Default led dome lights

I was in my boys car and he had led lights in the dome lights and now I want some. Does anyone know where to get them for both dome lights or does anyone have them on their jeep? Thanks

You sure those will plug right into the Cherokee dome light? The connectors look a bit different.

There was a thread here awhile back about z guy swapping over every interior light to LED.

Some were not direct plug and play. But its not hard to swap a connector. Most ofbthese are just two or three wire connectors. Real simple.

Also, autolumination.com and v-leds.com I've order LED's from both. Although the v-leds products and a tad bit better quality.

I agree did the same. Ebay led bulbs are hit n miss. I ordered some #37 leds for my climate/rear frost/ rear wiper lights and they blew out within a week. Now my shifters i put 194 leds and they have lasted. Same with the gauge cluster. Got the dome to do last

i just converted my entire 89 to led, except for rear blinker and reverse lights. they are enroute from china tho. the indash flashers are still incan as well as the hi-beam indicator. they are usually not on long enough to worry about. when i put leds in the flasher sockets, the blinker wouldn't work. i picked up a set of load resistors at advanced on the clearance table for $2

the dome light in the ebay ad plugs into a fake "bulb" that plugs in where your incan bulb goes. no modification required. the led pad just lays in the diffuser.

before i started the conversion, i was getting @ 12amps of draw on the battery with running lights on. now i get @ 4amps.

Go on to oznium.com. they have dome lights that come with basically all the connectors you will ever need for any car. It will work. What they do is take a bulb and run wires out of it. Then they plug into a small sqaure board of leds. So they give you like 12 different bulb types to plug into. Garanteed to have one there to fit our xjs. I bought one for my car one time. Much brighter then then the one I had in there before....which was off of eBay. The eBay ones are just the bulb with maybe 4 leds tops. These at oznium have many more to choose from. Based on what will fit inside the dome light thingy. At least take look. They have really good customer service. If any of the leds don't work they will just send out a whole new one. No questions asked.
