Anyone have a handle on the bulb type for the DRL yet... | I actually tried the Superbrightleds route but after ordering a bunch from Jake @ V-LEDS, the V-LEDS are much much brighter! Although a few are more money, IMO, I think its worth it in terms of brightness. As far as the DOMES go (Dont waste your money on the Putco Escalade ones) I ordered the UNIVERSAL PUTCO DOME LEDS from JC Whitney. They light up the cabin immensely!!! I went with the 20 piece for front & center & 24 piece for the rear...You dont have to get those sizes I just went with the biggest I could. The smaller ones are much cheaper.
The DRLs Im still working on..Ive changed every bulb except for that one!......I did manage to get an H11 to fit on two of the three tabs, and it seems like a very tight stable fit...I might do and LED H11. Hmm..I wonder if an HID H11 would work I have a few of those... |

Ok since I am changing all the lights does anyone know what would be the correct HID bulb to replace the stock halogen ones in the fog lights. I really believe that would nicely complete the look. |

Can anyone confirm that the middle bulbs are the DRLs? I thought the top bulb was the DRL. I don't think I have ever seen the middle bulb turn on. |

Italianospeed,
Should I order these from V-LEDS for the Escalade: http://www.v-leds.com/Shop/Control/P...d/0/SFV/32481#
I just want to make sure they fit the dome lights. I ordered the 42mm dome lights from another source and they didn't even power up.

Did you install them yourself ? | I bought a really cheap system off ebay about $75 for a 35 watt H11 kit so I bought some 3000K bulbs off ebay for about $15. They seem to take a little time to come on to full brightness.
So I bought this 55 watt regular size kit with 3000K fromhttp://www.therpmstore.com/product_info.php?cPath=35_36&products_id=336
but they sent me the slim and a relay harness by mistake...bonus for me! http://www.therpmstore.com/product_i...roducts_id=744 | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
