Hi, I'm new to the forum, although I have been lurking for quite some time now. I'm currently looking into getting lots of things for my 09 Corolla. Nut I was going to start off by putting LEDs in my headlights. Where has everyone been getting their LED strips and whats your experience been with them so far? I wanted to get White Side Emitting LEDs from SuperBrightLEDs, until I read some negative reviews of them. I started looking into V-LEDs, however I'm not sure they will be as bright or have the right look.

I also wanted to get nice LED tail lights and such, but I've only found one set for sale (that fits 09 corollas) and I don't trust them. Any suggestions there?

I think those are my only questions for now. Thanks!

First off

to TN!

So far this is the best forum I've come by for the 10thGen, so I'm sure you'll find plenty of information for our 10thGen's

Heres a link that directs you to the List of DIYs users have created to help you out on things they did to show you how they did it.

Official 10th Gen Corolla FAQ - List of DIYs

This second link directs you to a DIY on the LED strips for the Corolla

check out these (if these aren't what you found:
http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=09+....c0.m270.l1313

I bought mine from one of the sellers on ebay. I picked those up locally

The original pair has three LEDs that didn't work, so I did an exchange for another pair and since then the tail lights are working with no problem so far. The fitment is almost perfect and the quality is actually pretty good.

I suggest, if possible, you buy from seller near you who allow local pickup. In this case, it's easier to do exchange if you need to because after all these are aftermarket tail lights and you might get defective ones.

Thanks very much.

Those aren't the tail lights I saw before, but they seem much better. Much Appreciated. Also, I saw that LED DIY but nobody mentions where they got their LEDs. I'll make a post in there, if that's better.

Thanks guys!
