LED Map light bulb

I haven't used these, but thought they might be of interest to others for an LED replacement for the Map bulb:

Thanks Rich .... Bookmarked it .... Always nice to have an alternative .... my light seems to not be as bright as it should/could be.

Have you checked the contacts are not dirty/corroded. Or maybe a bit loose. Can be the reason lamps are low. Better fix than replace

True bad grounds are often a cause of poor lighting on these cars, but with things like the map light, GT interior light and even gauges ( and sparto reversing lights) anything with thin plastic lenses or heat sensitive components LED globes are good as they produce a lot less heat for the same luminosity and won't damage the lenses if they jamb on... Good advice if you have spartos... You see many with melted lenses
