Game for the LEDs

I'm up for the LED "kit". I've checked into replacing the bulbs that are blown and last I've checked they are around $7 a pop. You'd be a fool to pass up the LEDs. Anybody hear anything different let me know.

i assume you are talking about the tail lights.

bulbs at a parts store are expensive, but they are $1.99 at radio shack, so that will save you some coin.

i have also done LEDs into a tail light, i got 5 leds (3000mcd IIRC) and some resisters, i installed the resisters inline with the ground , and put the LEDs (large sized) into the sockets (the fit perfectly, just have to trim the wire a bit to make them the right lenght

i don't know that there is need for a kit, it took me maybe 20min to do it, and a few bucks at radio shack, the longest part of the whole process was the beer while i waited for the sodering iron to heat up
