LED lights question

Sniperfox · 04-23-2012, 05:44 AM

Anyone converted any of their rear lights or turn signals to LED bulbs? If so, did it require any modding or is that a simple bulb replacement?

Yep, you'll need to install load resistors to avoid the bulb outage notifications.

We are replacing our standard Christmas lights with LED and we have a 7 foot artificial tree. I have heard we should be using around 700 lights (100/ft). Is that equation the same for LED's?

Swap out your Flasher for an LED flasher then the bulb. Superbright LEDs sell one.Look for at least 60SMD bulbs and 200 lumin intensity. Use Switchback LEDs on the front indicator if possible.
WIll work great
