Anyone recommend some decent LED bulbs for interior and exterior?
Also looking for some low profile powerful LEDS for a little project if anyone knows of any good ones?

The answer is... Don't bother with interior LEDs. The issue is that they are directional so you end up with bluey horrible light in Very specific places. As for the front... Sidelight t10 led bulbs would be cool but other than that there isn't much you can do.

Eeyore is right, probably all of them on the interior they look blue. I had a picture of my interior with leds, but i can only find with the led on the back plate. I don't know if that's normal but mine starts to get brighter after a while

Philips makes really good ones (tera vision cera light), they light up 360 degrees and are (in the 5000K form) white and not blue, don't seem to flicker and also dim. They aren't cheap though at £15/pair on Amazon!

LED's don't last very long in the headlamps either, fitted a set of sidelight LED's to my motorbike headlights, lasted about 3 weeks lol
very bright for sure, but lasted about as long as i do in the sack
