Default 4 led swap?

Has anyone changed the 4 amber led's to white ones? If so, could you tell me what kind and where you got them and how to re-install them?

And another question, im interested in the cincity/r8 mod, the led's at the bottom of the headlight. Please let me know if you know how to do that, thanks.

I wouldn't call it easy. I did mine but attempting to desolder the amber ones and resolder white ones did not go so well, so I ended up buildling a brand new circuit board with voltage regulator, resistors and the 4 LEDs.

I started a thread but I asked for it to be locked cause it spiraled downhill fast. Anyway, there is some info in there.

Here is the link

If you have a good knowledge of electricity and LEDs, and the slightest of mechanical ability it shouldn't be too hard.

You should open up a web site and sell yours or make them and put them on ebay or something like that.
