    Lol, I'm, not sure why nobody will give you an answer. I went ahead and ordered the same ones as the OP yesterday. Once I get them installed I'll be sure to let you know whether or not they dim if nobody else does first.

    I just looked on the product pages under specifications and both the dome and map lights the OP specified say "NO" next to dimmable.

    You should be able to find some that are though, if that is important to you.

    all interior LED lights, 4" nerf bars (black), access tonneau bed cover, rubber bed mat, mud guards, back up LED lights.
    I ordered the WLED-W19-T backup lights, installed one and it didn't work tried both in same socket and still neither worked so had to return them. They are not canbus. might there be a +/- side?

    Yea, I noticed the original bulb is flat on the ends which fits well in the receptacle slot on the left side. The LED is not flat on the ends which ends up making it slightly longer. Mine too is wedged in place and appears to be ok.

    If you buy dimmable leds they will dim....If not they won't. The ones posted originally are not dimmable.

    I just slapped mine in this morning (same as OP) and I would say that yes, they do dim... but not as much as the stock bulbs. The LED's dim to a point and then turn off. If you want ones that do a true analog dim to zero then I would make sure to buy ones that specify being dimmable.

    Also, regarding the 31mm dome light being tight. I took a pair of pliers and squeezed down the spring terminal on the one side a bit, then pried it back up a little with a small screwdriver to make sure it still had enough tension to hold the bulb's orientation and that made it go in nice and easy.

    technically the dome light is a 29mm size, if you read thru a few pages it was determined its not a 31mm size.

    I know. I read the whole thread. The 31mm that the OP bought works though. I was just letting people know how to make it work more easily should others choose to purchase that light.

    Yes, I figured that out after a while; when I was outside one night; I thought boy is this bright. Wonder why the interior ones aren't LED; maybe cost?

    So has anyone ran into any issues with the LEDS in the visors. I swapped everything out and for some reason the outside visor lights do not come on. The inside LEDS work fine but for some reason the outsides are off. I swapped them around and it's not the bulbs because they work when switched to the inside.

    Any ideas?

    Are the light polarity sensitive? Probably why they are doing that. Have you turned the bulbs in the socket?

    Ill try that in the morning. I did switch between the sockets and they worked unless I just happened to rotate then the right way while switching them around cause they worked fine in the other inside socket

    Did you order from SuperbrightLEDS.com? A little detail...there's some text stamped on the light assembly. The text goes towards the bottom. That should solve your polarity issues.
