Default KrautoLED Installation

So I just got the full LED kit from Krauto and I got everything installed except for the rear map lights. After some trickery with duct tape and a pair of tweezers, I got the old bulb out but I can't manage to get the LED in. If you guys could give me some tips or tricks that helped you do it, that would be much appreciated.

I'm sorry i can't give you any advice to your question as i never did the led light, upgrade. I am however, curious about how much you paid for them and where you purchased them. Could you please post me a link of where you got them?

I just did my interior last week and for the rear map, the base where the bulb attaches should twist off from the housing.

Can anyone tell me where to get a led interior light upgrade???

I see everyone talking about putting them in but won't answer my question of where to get them and how much!

KrautoLED Complete Interior LED Package | Audi B5 A4/S4 Sedan or Avant | KrautoLED

That's where I got them. They're $40 plus $10 if you want license plate lights and and $20 if you want reverse lights. I think it's worth going for them all.

Yoink! just ordered the full set!

Total : $69.99 USD shipped

I always get so frustrated with backing into my drive way, everytime i come home at night and i can't see behind me and there are 3 other cars in the drive way and i have to back in and pass 3 cars to my sparking spot!!!

I have to ride my breaks and overs steer, so i don't hit a car by mistake. Now with this kit, including the rear back lights, I'll finally be able to see in the dark, when backing up!

Thanks for the link

Good decision. Just upgraded mine too a couple weeks ago. Totally worth it. Bought some more to retrofit the rest of the exterior.

superbrightleds.com is where I got mine from. Was about $45 if I remember correctly.


I see this is an old thread now... Oops.
