My LED lighting
Here are some daytime pictures of my LED bulbs.
Here is a picture of how the overall headlight assembly just looks much nicer without the big yellow turnsignal bulb. If you look closely you can also see the LED parking light.
Here is a closeup of the turn signal LED bulb
Here is a picture of the rear turn signal reverse light area. See how much cleaner it looks when you don't see the yellow bulbs through the clear lens?
Here is a closeup of the assembly
Here we go! Night pics!
Front with parking lights on only...
Front with hazards on to illustrate turn signals
Now for the rear shots, you should see how bright and white the license plate LED's are!
Look how much it lights upt he floor behind the plate! Can't wait to get my Miami Heat plate!
LED's in the tail lights as well and the rear parking light in the taillight assembly.
Now check out the reverse lights....
Now the rear signals...
Last but not loeast some video clips, 56k beware these files are large...
I would recommend right clicking the links and doing a save as...

this could very well be a stupid question but does the brightness of the front parking light overwhelm the front HIDs?
Also what colors did you use all around?
Looks amazing by the way i really love the front especially
thanks

Thanks for convincing me to finish up led'ing my lights
I've already got leds for the parking lights and rear brake lights, but just didn't do the turn signals yet for some reason. I love the instant on/off look of them.

Thanks!

also, i have heard that changing out the rear brake lights with leds will make it harder to see if you are on the brakes or not. (hard to tell the difference between bright and VERY bright) is this true?
