LED Replacement signal/brake bulbs

Post by NachoMan »

Has anyone had any experience using these in their Staz?
I was thinking about getting some, but I guess I'm wondering;

1. If they're bright enough
2. If the lower voltage use will make the car's system think that a bulb is blown, (the little light in the instrument cluster)

Any thoughts?

I got them in mine. Get an LED flasher can and it all works great.

for brake lights and indicators its best to use a multiangle LED bulb. As in one with LEDs pointed in different directions. They help spread the light.
Reverse lights i find are much brighter with LED and park lights look better with a nice bright white light then a dull yellowish light

Anyone else from WA want some?

We should probably all go for the same units to make things easier...

Any thoughts on model/quantity?
