Hey AK,

From what i was reading, you put the smaller ones in the dome light, but theyre actually meant for the plate lights. The smaller ones are SMD lights, which create less heat. If you put the bigger LEDs in the plate light, it will generate too much heat and perhaps shorten the life of the LED (since its such a small area and there is no place for the heat to escape).

Thanks for the review, and I'm glad you like them!
