Trolling Airforums sometime back I found these threads on LED conversions...

May be helpful to someone thinking about doing this for themselves...

Enjoy.

Has anyone tried this style? I have been thinking about trying a set in my vintage Chev. but they almost seem to good to be true. Would love to hear from someone who has them.

Can't help but wonder if the installation direction would make a difference..
In most cars, the bulb socket comes straight out, so you are seeing the 'tip' of the bulb when you are behind it..
However my camper taillight bulbs are mounted sideways..

They dont specify or show a picture of 'running light' mode vs. 'brake light' mode but it does look like there are LEDs on the end of the setup..
Perhaps as taillights, then when you step on the brales the entire thing lights up?

If thats the case, they wouldn't work very well as running lights.. at least not in my taillights~

In an older car or truck that takes 1157 bulbs, maybe they would be fine~

This thread really isn't the place for this discussion. This thread is about the links found around the net showing the links about various LED conversions.
