Well, none of those automotive LED places sell any right-angle surface mount LEDs for edge lighting of panels... that's what these are doing, lighting the edge of the clear plastic plate that's underneath the SCION logo... I'll probably have to just solder in a regular LED lying down horizontally in place of the missing surface-mount one, but the LED must be no bigger than a 3mm T1 case - that's all the space there is between the circuit board and the underside of the sill when it is assembled. A standard-size 5mm LED wont fit.
