Re: Led Bulbs
Hi i have changed my stop&tail light bulbs and warning light bulbs to LED"s as they use less power and last a lot longer in use and are brighter as well they are also very cheap on fleabay so i think it is a change for the better hope this helps rick

Re: Led Bulbs
I have them for indicators (hassle to fit) and stop lights (easy).
The biggest benefit in my opinion is the much longer life from leds.

Re: Led Bulbs
Hi, what did you use for the indicators please? They flash fast without load resistors - how did you do this part?Cammo wrote:I have them for indicators (hassle to fit)
I have LED stop/tail lights (bought them 10 years ago and still going strong!) - I used to have to replace the stop/tail bulbs fairly often when they blew which is a bit of a pain.
Plus the brake lights light up faster than a normal bulb.
