I wanted to go for the brightest festoon LED light for my Westy but the kit from VC is too expansive for me. So I bought three from ebay :
http://cgi.ebay.com/Car-Interior-Dome-12-SMD-LED-F...3366d43654

12 LED packages and each have three LED die on. I bought the 42mm version but the PCB is too wide to put in the clips. I have to grind off a bit of the clips for it to fit. But for $2.59 each shipped ( don't know why they have to ship it in 3 separate packages ), I can not complain. The 36mm version 9 LED may fit without mod but I am not sure. The 16LED version is not as bright as there are only 1 LED die in each LED package.

The LED is very bright and you don't want tot look at it directly. Wish they have a version that is warmer.
