You can get festoon (that's the fuse style name) bulbs with LED's retrofitted just about anywhere. eBay, random websites, autozone probably.

BavAuto has a few kits, they're under performance lighting. It's pretty much the same prices on eBay IIRC. __________________

In my personal opinion I would go with Bavauto.com. They have the kits for like 20 bucks for 24 leds on one fuse. Not bad. I have a pair in my front dome light. Very bright and fits with no problems. Everything was included in the kit. __________________

Okay let's update this to help other members out. Posting another source for LED bulbs. The circuit board ones can be used for hard to fit locations. Maybe someone can give us a feedback once they tried the led out from this company. Give others the part number and location on the 318ti. http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=40_75 | | | | | |
