Links updated, give them a go now. There's photos of my interior lights on page 2 of my build.

Resist buying them ....

You want bright, give these little COB LEDs a go. They are insanely brighter and use much less power than conventional SMD type LEDs.

I've put similar to these little guys in as interior lights and they are boardering on being to bright.

I use those "COB" stlye leds very bright, just looks like yellow paper lol
I think one would be ok under the awning later on in the night,
Those and the "bulls eye" are awsome LEDs,
other than the strip led failing all others are shining bright LOL

I recently added a kit daylight running lights and experienced the same issues as cupper, that is three lights out followed by the rest. Its due to the LEDs being unable to dissapate enough heat, also as cuppa said. There is a fix however and that is to fit a series resistor into the circuit to dissapate some of the power. This will dim the lights but not by much, but it will result in much longer life of the arrays. i now hav a series resistor of 16.5 ohms and the lights work well and are lasting more than the 10 days I was getting when they were supplied.
I recommend this site http://led.linear1.org/ to anyone who wants to find out about power dissapation in LED arrays.
I cannot recommend Aerpro Daytime Running Light kit from Autobahn though. It is badly designed and prone to failure because of the poor quality resistor and heat sink in the light itself. Nuff said on that.
