Need a little more light than what the factory dome lights are giving out. Many people recommend going with LED's but Ive heard they can start fires since the factory wiring cant handle them. Is there a brighter halogen bulb than factory?

I have LED dome lights in all my cars. I have a crazy bright one in my work truck. I bought them all on e-bay. They are lower wattage than stock, i dont see where the problems would occur. Are you sure you aren't thinking of HID headlights? They can sometimes cause problems with the wiring. Either way, i LOVE mine. Just find out the bulb size and search e-bay.

I removed the dome light from a 04 Hyundai XG350 and installed it in my Hyundai 01 Elantra. Its large, has two bulbs and push button versus the slider switch. it was pretty much plug and play I just had to mount it and slightly remove some of the head liner to fit.
