As for the map lights, the LEDs are polarized, so you must try them both ways. Also, all bulbs inside will have no issues, but if you change the ones in the side mirrors, you will have to add resistors to make them function properly.

Ok great I'll check it out.

True, I did try it to turn them around and I tried twisting the bulb holder different ways. I'll give it another shot tonight.

DO NOT DO IT WHILE THE LIGHTS ARE ON. I did this and it caused the car to cut power to many items until it went to sleep for the night and woke up in the morning (apparently the vehicle's computers completely shut down after a preset time, usually 40 minutes or so).

Right, I usually wait for the lights to turn off or close my doors and lock the car. I replaced the middle light, however the 2 map lights on the sides do not like the LED I am using or something, I need to try the one that works in the middle on the side map lights, see if that works.
