I was changing Dome light w/ LED (DE3175) when i was supposed to use 235 (is that 235 or 239..?) Anyway. i didn't know and i thought i could do it.

I saw a Little spark. then my clock and Dome light died.... :lame:

Anyway, I looked at the fusebox on the Passengerside.

Omg. wtf is this Fuse? i've never seen that kind before.
it's really long and it has 4 fuses inside all together (gay, which means if one blows out, i have to change the whole thing.)

Anyway, i took it to Autozone and Advanced Autoparts, Man. They've never seen that kinda Fuse before!!!!

Where am i supposed to get it? is Dealer the Last choice?? i don't like'em..




Btw, i think i'll still use DE3175. Just solder some wires to the positive and negative plates and wrap it around the bulb. i'll post a pic if that works.

The dealer is the only place you can get them, I've got the part number if you need it. The dealer doesn't usually have them so it takes a day to get em. Usually you'll lose the dome light,pwr mirrors and clock or something.

Your car comes with one spare one under the hood though, use that if you haven't already

Actually a few months ago I got in contact with the japanese company that makes them trying to get them, however they only deal in wholesale to distributors like car companies. They said the minimal order was like 5000 pieces. I was like...uhm no.
