Dome & Map Light Mod

Ordering this for map lights (above front sets) and dome (back seats)... is this correct?

- 2 VELOCITY LEDS HID WHITE HIGH POWER LED BULBS 194
http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/prod...roducts_id=141

- SUPER WHITE 8 LED DOME LIGHT BULB 212 211 212-2 214-2
http://frickinbrite.com/catalog/prod...roducts_id=110


Look good? Also, what lights do I need to replace the bed-lights on top of the back of the cab. Thanks.

921 bulb fits you map lights, and third brake lights...
I used a 42mm feston bulb for my dome light,
and 194 fits your license plate and your front side reflectors...

once you have the size, you can pick whatever brightness you want..

Hope this helps

What should I use for my license plate (as far as the # goes),
The white lights on the side of my 3rd brake light
and the 4 interior lights on the ceiling of my 07.


Also what is the difference b/t the Dome and the Map ligts. I take it that the map is in the front of the truck and the dome is in the rear
license plate 194
dome is festoon 42mm
and map lights and top brake lights are 921

yes dome rear, map front
