They look cool but the shipping is 50% of the price ouch !
I'd check a local auto parts store and see what they might have to see how the LED's look / work before investing.

I've been wanting to try LED lighting for home use but its hard to find LED lamps I think Sams has them but haven't seen them at the Depot yet...

This is what they look like in a Blazer:


They are very expensive though.

I went and checked out SuperbrightLED's site and they do have good (reasonable) prices and shipping is only $5 for your order, to replace all the interior lights of an 07 Tahoe (6 dome lights) its about $32 including shipping not to bad...I almost pulled the trigger on the cool white LED's but the wife gave me that look that MDTAHOE spoke of in another thread....
