I'm going to piggy-back here since the window is closing for this one time build of Underhood Engine Lamps. (2 days left)
http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread.php?t=19390&page=4
This is a custom build specifically for our car.
You won't see anything like this available commercially :
1. All in one assembly (no wires and loose parts)
2. 8x brighter than but with 10% of the power used than stock
3. hermetically sealed (the assembly not the kit)
4. focused beam to the engine compartment

But wait.....if you order now.....
nah, that's it. That's all.
Here is what the engine looks like. It actually looks brighter but you know how cameras are.

GC,

Thanks again for doing this group buy and great dealing with Yosi too. At first I hesistated with the package price, but these are surely worth it and they are high quality bulbs too, unlike some of the junk you will get from Ebay. I am very impressed and photos will not do this any justice. Why did I wait so long?????? I bought the white and installed all today except for the cargo ones to the left and right of the driver and passenger heads. I ran out of time, but I will just say they are awesome and difficult to explain further. I think the biggest plus of it all was the bulbs are the right bulbs and no guessing. The only ones I don't need are the map lights since Andrew's compass mirror come with them already.

GC and Scott,

Thanks for the all the emphasis and motivation on LED lamps for interior and underhood lamp. After all of the impressive results with more light, I continued to replace all the other bulbs on the car including the glove box, console, license plate, spare tire/emergency, etc. and really love it.

What a difference it makes to have the bright lights in the interior and exterior from the dull, yellowish incandescent lamps.

Addition is a good way to describe it. Yep, I did HIDs a few months ago and would never go back. HIDs are a must do for sure..........

I did the HID fogs recently and basically use them rather than my halogen headlamps. Which HIDs did u go with? I bought CorvetteMods LEDS for the interior lighting, reverse, cornering, running, and license plate lamps. I keep forgetting that I could probably leave the door open all night and not run down the battery.

That sounds good and I have not done the fogs yet, only upgraded to higher watt bulbs years ago and I guess that would be next on the list as you can never have too much lighting.

The HIDs I have are Hikari HID Conversion Kit, H4, 55W, 8000K, white light. It was a gift to me from local ZR-1 owner in Japan and I could not believe how easy it was to install even if I could not read the instructions.

It sounds like we have replaced all the same exterior, but I did not do the reverse lamps yet and will look into that. I upgraded the reverse to higher watt some years ago and will check out what is available in LED. Thanks for the tip. Yeah, the LEDs are so cool how they don't get hot and not yellowish light.

That is another benefit if something is left on by accident too.

Did you do the side reverse lights? Those are the only one I did not replace.
