Bright, Inexpensive But Don't Last/ Poor Build Quality
Bought these late November 2018 for the map lights on my 2008 Honda Pilot. They were very bright and worked great for about a month and then the (very annoying) flickering started. Each bulb has 9 LED's but 6 of them are out on one map light and 3 are out on the other. As each LED starts to fail it begins flickering and at a seizure inducing rate. Cool for a disco but not in the car (seems to like to stop flickering momentarily to trick me into looking back up at them only to flash me in the eyes (I also think I hear an evil snickering when they do that). Too bad, will have to replace them lest they move on to doing even more evil doings.

BRIGHT
These are bright and good white light. You will likely need to add a 1k ohm 1/4watt resistor. When you shut the door they stay lit very slightly. Hard to tell during the day but distracting at night. After a boat load of researching reviews and online forums I finally determined it wasn't a problem with my truck or with the bulbs. I have a Nissan and it switches ground to turn the lights on and off so 12volts is present at the bulb. You get just the slightest voltage across the bulb which isn't enough to make an incandescent glow but the LED will. A resistor knocks the voltage down to 0 and solves the problem. You can get higher quality Sylvania LED's that don't have this problem but they are more expensive and not nearly as bright. The resistor is less than .50¢ most anywhere and is easy to install.

Good light but not an exact fit
2000 Toyota Tundra dome light went out so I figured why not try the LEDs. The lighting difference is stark, you can really see inside! The one small problem is these are, according to my digital caliper, 31.3mm...just enough to be a bit of a problem fitting in the clips. Made it work but an exact fit would be nicer. I didn’t try all 4 bulbs so this one might just be an outlier...but QC should have caught it.

Brighter and cleaner light
I bought these to replace dome light bulbs in a Mazda MX-5 Miata and also a Mazda3.. These are probably 20-30% brighter than the stock lights and they are very white instead of yellow. I LOVE them. One thing to note is that if you look close at the photo, even though it replaces a cylindrical bulb, all of the LEDs are on one side, so the light is directional... Make sure the LEDs are pointing down.. They still cast a wide band of light, so you won't notice anything unless you accidentally install facing up, in which case you'll likely see very little light. :-)

One by one they are all failing
UPDATE: After starting off just fine I have downgraded my review from 4-star to 2-star.One after another these are starting to flicker then completely fail. Of the original package of four, only one has survived.I do not recommend!One week after the last Amazon return date, one of the bulbs has started flickering badly then went out. Swapped it with another that worked in a different car and the replacement worked.I contacted the seller thru Amazon and after a couple of emails I had a replacement set in my hand within a week.Replace the faulty lamp and the replacement works.

Bright Blue Light, but watch the length
Very bright / bluish light. Replaced the cargo bulb and front map bulbs in a 2013 Mazda CX-5. Warning though: the LEDs are mounted on a metal heat sink, so if the length between the electrical contacts in your car isn’t wide enough, the metal heat-sink will touch both contacts and will short-circuit your electrical system. I tried using them in the center dome lights for the same CX-5, and because these bulbs were a little too long, they touched both contacts and resulted in the electrical system shutting off. I ended up using COB “filament” type LED festoon bulbs, which are all glass and look like traditional halogen bulbs with LED filaments for the dome lights instead.

Very tight
I got these for my 4Runner dome lights, and the fit is suboptimal as can be seen in photo. The old bulbs had flattened ends that fit well into the slots of the terminals. The replacements not so much. They would not fit into their terminals as they are supposed to. 2/4 bent while attempting to get them in. Finally got 2 “mounted” diagonally. I don’t know if they make LEDs this size with flattened ends.

Bright & Inexpensive, BUT....
Bought these before the end of the year in 2018 and installed them on New Years Day. By early March, 3 of the 4 bulbs started testing if I or my family had epilepsy (the flickering). According to NAKOBO, these things have a 1 year warranty, however, I don't know to to reach out them on it. Don't get me wrong, I've bought other LED sizes from this brand and haven't had an issue yet, but for this particular size, I'm looking into buying another set from a different brand. These look like its a hit or miss. Would I buy these again? Not sure, would have to depend on the $$$ situation. Videos to be posted soon.

Excellent
Great, They look good, much brighter then the factory bulbs. Easy to install once you figure out how to get into your lights lol.
