Fits 99 Jeep Cherokee XJ - with overhead console
Exactly what I was looking for. I used these to replace the map/cargo lights in my Jeep Cherokee. Arrived quickly, two bulbs in a little blister pack with cardboard backing. Like you would find in auto parts store. Bulbs are very clean white light, totally updated the look of my interior from the yellow incandescent bulbs. If you are new to LEDs, remember that they are polarized, IE current only goes through in one direction. If test the bulb before you put the lens cover back on. If it doesn't light up, reverse the metal contacts 180 degrees and try again. With absolutely no way of knowing the polarity of the socket, I lucked out and got 3 out of 4 bulbs right my first try. Had to flip one around. Anyway, if you are replacing factory bulbs with these, you may want to do all at once as the color is definitely whiter than the factory bulb. Other benefits of the low current draw, there is a good chance that if you leave a map light on overnight, it won't kill your battery.Edit - I probably should clarify if you are buying these for a Jeep XJ. I put them in a 99 sport with the overhead console. 5 total. 4 overhead maplights, and one rear cargo light. If you don't have the overhead console, these might not be the correct bulbs. Do a search on a Jeep Cherokee forum, that's how I learned what size to get. The non overhead console map lights are shaped differently.PS I've had these one day. If they start to fail prematurely I'll update my review.

Great buy
I've had these in my 2008 impala for about 10 months now and they are still working great and are really bright, just make sure they are the right size for your car and you shouldn't have any problems.

So bright!
These work great in my 2010 GTI. I have one installed in my trunk/hatch and it easily illuminates the entire thing with super bright white light.

poor quality
End caps fell off when I tried to install in light fixture. Very delicate - soldered together with tiny spot of solder, no mechanical reinforcement of ends, I would look elsewhere.

Work fine.
They didn't seem to fit as tightly in the sockets as the originals but this could be the car for all I know. Work fine.
