I personally dont care for all them engine size badges etc. I am not one to quickly de-badge a vehicle but I like to keep it simple and clean. When I got my new bed I had them repaint my tailgate too which they had to remove the emblems. I am definitely NOT replacing the huge 1990s CHEVROLET one if anything just the one that has the bowtie and S-10. I was however, thinking of getting from LMC truck a set of the old early 90s 4.3L Fuel Injection emblems and putting either the one on the front like the original ones had, but I cant find a good place for it or just getting the two and putting them on the two front fender or front doors.

If there is any car though I cant stand all the badging on its a Toyota.

You mean the reading lights? These are just regular 195 etc bulbs. You can replace them by just grabbing and pulling the bulb will pop out of the socket DO NOT TWIST.

they are ebay specials...i bought a pack of 25, for like 12.99...can't find the particular seller i got mine from, but they look just like these..just a single LED encased in solid plastic, or something..i had to take a dremel and shave down the tip of one, so i could use it for the accent light in the ashtray...pretty decent quality bulbs for the price though, i have them in almost every 194 bulb socket on my truck, as well as the dome lights in my girlfriend's civic, and her tag lights...haha. I only have about 5 left out of the 25...:(

oh, here goes the link... http://www.ebay.com/itm/T10-W5W-168-194 ... 1f&vxp=mtr

Oh nice, that seems good nice to see they are so cheap now. I bought LEDs for my VW from www.performanceLEDs.com They are mostly high power output LEDs but I dont know if they will fit in our odd lense application for the S10
