How do I find and order lights for my car?
This site offers 3 different and easy ways to shop for LED lights.
You can search by:
1) Car Manufacturer - menu shown on left side of website
2) Bulb shape
3) Part number
What happens if I do not know what size lights my car uses?
The following site has the bulb sizes for the majority of cars: Sylvania Replacement Guide
In the event that you cannot find your car on the website - do not panic. Matching your stock interior bulbs to an LED replacement is a simple task.
• Carefully pop off the dome light covers and examine the length and shape of the stock bulb.
• Keep in mind there are only 6 different shapes of lights and matching your bulb to the pictures on: 'Shop By BULB SHAPE’ is very easy.
If you are continuing to have issues, we will be happy to help. Email us at support@tunerdomes.com with the make / model of your car and a picture of the lights you wish to replace next to a ruler so we can easily determine the size.
Please note: Emailing us the OEM part #'s will not help us. The Bulb Shape and Size is what matters.
What are the advantages of switching to a TUNERDOMES™ LED dome light?
Light Emitting Diodes (L.E.D.s) are continuing to replace traditional filament bulbs in more and more applications including televisions, home appliances, and traffic lights. Some of the many advantages of LED lights over Incandescent bulbs are:
• Extended service life - The life of an LED light averages at 10,000 hours making LED lights extremely reliable and practical.
• Drastically reduced power consumption - While putting out the same amount of usable light, LED lights consume about 50% LESS power than halogen bulbs.
• Produce virtually NO HEAT - An LED light uses so little power that most of the time the bulb will not even feel warm to the touch, even after hours of use, making LED lights ideal for small spaces.
• Unaffected by vibration - Unlike halogen bulbs, LED lights do not have filaments or tiny parts that can come loose during vibrations; this makes LED lights not only more durable, but also much more dependable.
How do I install my new TUNERDOMES™ LED light?
Installation is very simple:
1) Replace only one bulb at a time if you have ordered one of our premium kits.
2) Carefully pop off your dome/courtesy light plastic cover
3) Pop/Pull out your old dome light (be careful, it may be hot)
4) Carefully insert your new TUNERDOMES™ LED light (For your safety, DO NOT use a screw driver or any other metal tool around live contacts in your dome housing!)
5) If the LED Bulb does not light up, turn it around the other way (reverse the polarity)
I have installed the LED lights, but they are not turning on.
If your new LED light is not lighting up, below are a few troubleshooting tips that solve 99.9% of the reported problems:
1) If applicable, check to make sure your dome switch is turned on
2) Turn the LED around the other way (reverse the polarity)
3) Make sure the connectors (wires) are touching the contacts that fight tightly
4) If you used a screwdriver or something metal to pop out the factory bulb, you make have blown a fuse. Check your fuse box with the ignition turned off.
Please note: Another way to test the fuse would be to put the old bulb back in the socket to make sure the circuit still has current running through it.
5) If you have tried all of these steps and you still cannot get your new bulb to work - email us at support@tunerdomes.com
My car is turned off, but my new TUNERDOMES™ LED is still lit.
A major advantage of having your TUNERDOMES™ LED light is that it needs a very small amount of current to remain lit; some carts actually will have residual current running through the circuits even after you shutoff the car. This is not an issue with the bulb, nor will the bulb train your battery. The LED will eventually drain the current left in the circuit and shut off.
If the LED remains lit, it may mean your car is continuing to send current through that circuit, which should be addressed as this decreases the life of the car's battery.
