Default LED lighting

I wanted to display some of these evening interior shots, the blue is so intensive at night, the orange Z door sill compliments the blue. I only have standard power amber LEDs right now Bill over at V-LEDS promised to send me the next batch of higher power amber. They look about as good as stock should of been {a little washed out}. The white LEDs in the license area are supurb without drawing too much attention. Since these lights are sold in paired packs I have one blue LED left for an underhood light that I'll post after installation.

Uh huh! Someone tried to tell me earlier today that there's more than one color in the spectrum.......I had to politely disagree and say "If it ain't blue....I don't believe you!"

Yea, the blue looks great at night in person believe me 2theextreme knows, the amps and sub worked out great the board splits in the center with each wing having its own storage area. On the right is a bottle of slime with a portable compressor, on the left is my tow hook. Doing away with the spare tire & wheel plus the jacking equipment saves me close to 35 pounds. The system is so much better than any factory unit. Anyone going to ZCon in Nashville, will meet up and check out our Zs.

Ok.... LED newb question here.

Is this just replacing some bulbs with LED bulbs? Or, is this something more complicated like wiring up some LED strips and or some other custom lighting that needs to be specially wired up?
