LED Overhead Lights
Just spent the entire day changing all 60 overhead halogen bulbs to natural white LED bulbs. What a difference!
We can really feel the temperature difference. Now there is more light, and the interior appears larger & updated.
It's not cheap, but we are glad we did it. Bought the bulbs through M4Products.com.

X2 on the bulbs from M4. Not cheap but they fit without mods to the socket and, most important, don't explode like some of the cheap stuff on the market have been known to do. I had one fail after a year and it was replaced no questions asked. 
I replaced all of my T8 18" fluorescent tubes from them also. Again, pricey but an excellent product.

I changed over 60 of them in my rig, wasn't easy as I had to remove the reflector/heat sink and glue the socket back in on each light. Probably won't do the storage bay lights since they aren't on long enough to matter. I used some the M$ ones in the bedroom since there were fewer lights and I needed more light.

Mr. D, were they from M4? I tried a couple others that required mods to the fixtures and then called M4. They were very helpful getting bulbs that fit right in. No mods.

M4 and CabinBrite are my favorite 2 sources for LED lighting. May cost more than what you might find on EBAY, but they work and stand behind them.
