Red Interior LED Upgrade (OEM LED Replacement) | Integra / Civic

In this video, I upgraded all of the interior lighting in my Acura Integra — replacing the stock white LEDs with red ones (Civic Type R Part#) throughout the cabin.

This fits the OEM+ direction of the channel: useful, clean, and focused on real-world ownership rather than going over the top.

What This Video Covers

• This is a full OEM LED replacement, converting the factory lighting to red for a more aggressive OEM+ look.
• Door handle lighting
• Door accent lighting
• Center console lighting
• The result completely transforms the feel of the interior — especially at night.
• This install requires removing the door panels — full guide below 👇
• OEM LED replacement (white → red)

OEM Acura Logo Projectors… But I Made Them RED (Integra Install)

In this video, I install OEM Acura door logo projectors on my Acura Integra but with a twist. I modified them with red tint to match my interior lighting, giving them a much more aggressive OEM+ look. These projectors illuminate the Acura logo onto the ground when you open the door, and this small change makes a big impact.

The goal is to make the job feel approachable before you start taking parts off the car.

Why This Guide Matters

Door panel removal is the first step for a lot of the best Civic and Integra upgrades: puddle lights, speaker work, illuminated trim, and interior lighting. Getting the clips and hidden fasteners right matters more than using force.

Before You Start

Take your time, use plastic trim tools where possible, and keep track of each screw and clip location so reassembly is clean.
