Post LED Bulbs

i recently put some LED's in my reverse taillights to help the appearance and brightness. I like the more vivid colors i guess you would call it instead of having the yellow looking florescent bulbs. I'm wondering if anyone has done LED's all around the car like on the inside and in the turn signals or Brake lights/Turn Signals. I'm not talking like replacing the whole unit just the bulbs and seeing what people think.

(I my reverse lights pictures attached) i got them for $10 on eBay cause my originals burned out

I've replaced the majority of the lights in my car with LEDs.

White license plate LEDs, and white front center map light.

Also using red rear map lights, front map lights, glovebox light, an Osir Orbit V3 shift **** with red LED, and I've added two 7" LED strips under the dash.

i put some led's on my side marker's and they burned one of my fuses and all my turn signal's went out -__- took me a week before i figured out that it was a fuse instead of the hazard relay.

No way haha, I have them wired up to an OEM German "Funk" switch I installed.

I'm due to update these pictures. I've since added facelift vent housings, new pedal covers, hardwired my GPS (no more green light), installed a 3 spoke sport steering wheel, OEM winter floor mats, and a custom shift boot.
