Default Re: LED Tail lights

I changed over the tail lights to LED using these replacement bulbs bought on Amazon.

JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright PX Chipsets 1157 2057 2357 7528 LED Bulbs

When they say bright they mean it, while the pictures show mostly white the actual colors are more red and amber, they are even brighter when the brake light are on. The only extra part you need is an led flasher which I got on e-bay.

Here is a picture when I was switching lenses. Right has OEM bulbs

Truth-be-know, Jeff, I thought your "old" LED tail lights looked marginally better (but good!) than filament bulbs - just not so much better to move me to getting some. But, the new LEDs...I like them enough to take the plunge and buy some. The "hot spot" blends at a distance and looks nice to me, FWIW.

Default Re: LED Tail lights

I want it all. What I want to see is a HALO rear light and a top and bottom RED/AMBER split LED Euro taillight.


GO big or go home LOL




However here is what I run on both my Z's and My Son's GS. Its a one piece unit like -=JEFF=-'s however with a few more LEDS (48 per Lens Actually). On my white Z and daily driver this unit has been running without fail for 12 years and counting. They are very bright
