It's hard to tell from the pics, are these a blue-white or more pure white? If they're pure white please put me down for a set. And thanks for organizing yet another group buy!

Someone else needs to take lead and coordinating this group buy. I'm out now. I couldn't wait any longer and purchased a set through ebay.

Good luck!

You can piece meal interior sets off amazon...that's what I did...thru some trial/error I'm pretty happy with my setup.

Did you receive them yet, and can you give us a review? If you found a good kit option (as opposed to ordering in bulk and splitting them up) I'd probably just go for that. If you're happy with what you purchased a link would be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, I received the set already. After a few attempts, I was able to get an entire set (haven't switched the glove department yet bc I didn't want to deal with the popping a fuse like others) to work without errors or flickering. Initially, the seller sent the incorrect bulbs for the front and rear domes which flickered but they eventually sent the correct bulbs which didn't cause this problem anymore. Please note the I had to cut the set of rear map bulbs bc they were too long but don't fret, it worked after shaving them without any errors or flickering. Long story short, I'm happy with the results and the seller now knows which bulbs to send now to complete the E70...hopefully.

Thanks. How's the light quality, pure white? I want to avoid any overly blue tinged LEDs.

Yes, it's pure white. No blue hue at all and they're bright. It's been a couple of weeks so I don't have an extensive amount of use time with them tho.

If you're looking for LED reverse lights (W16W), I bought these on ebay. No flicker or errors.

I'm waiting for my rear LED turn signals (P21W) so I'll let you know the results when they arrive.

I was going to take the lead on these sets but the price that I received was a bit higher. I will post up a new thread and see what the interest is like...

Do the LED reverse lights provide better illumination? That would be my reason for an LED swap, not just to look cool since I'll never see them.

Speaking of turn signals, if anyone is looking for white LED front signal bulbs, both E70sportmia and I have purchased these:

They're a great match to the OEM LED angel eyes, no errors whatsoever, no flicker, and 1/3 the price of the Jlevi Weisslicht version. Definitely recommend them.

I'll be honest. I don't see a huge difference but they do look damn good.

Dammit, wish i knew about these front turn signals. I bought the Wesslicht ones and they make the OEM LED angels look like crap bc they're too white and bright

Since this GB is over, is there a consensus on which ones are good to buy? Amazon, iJDMToy, etc... Would love to order a set ASAP.

These look good:

Honestly, if you're going to go thru the hassle of swapping them out, just get some OEM LEDs.

I've done it both ways, with the first time thinking I could go cheap. It just doesn't look the same, and I ended up getting the OEM ones later on and chalked it up to a learning experience. The brightness, color, and overall quality is night and day difference.

To do the complete interior, you'll need two sets as there just aren't enough to properly get them all in done in one box.
