this is in my tiburon. i just took out the stock bulbs, drilled a bunch of holes, and stuck regular leds in there with super glue. it turned out nice.

i can sell you some 5mm blue leds for 1.50 a peice. they would come with a resistor allready soldered in and heat shrunkm, ready for 12V. i also have some wire taps so that you dont have to strip wires to get power or ground. 75 cents for each of those. the leds look like this pic except the gound lead has heatshrink around it too. the power lead has blue heat shrink around it. if you want to get the leds to disperse light at a wider angle, just sand or chip the top down flat. then whatever shipping is. shoot me an email [email protected].

i used about 6 in that picture. thats prolly more than you need though. you really get an idea of what you need buy going back there. i have no clue about how the honda's are illuminated back there though.
i can include 10ft. of blue 18ga wire for 2.50 dollars with it. i also have led holers. with these, you can drill a .25" hole anywhere and mount an led in it. these are 50 cents each.
when you connect the leds up, take the exposed part of the blue lead, bend it in half(or more, just make sure it doesnt stick out of the crimp terminal) and stick it in the connector for the power wire(refer to picture). then, crimp it down HARD to make sure you have a good connection. then just find a power wire and squeeze it into the little groove on the metal peice in the connector. you can do this with pliers, but a crimping tool would work best.
to ground it, put the black lead of the LED in the other type of connector in the one hole that has plastic at one end. then just slip your ground wire through the outside hole, and squeeze the metal down. then take the plastic thing and push it down untill it snaps into place.
and heres a picture of the stuff i have...
