they are just globe types ones by the looks of it, this would be tthe whole insides of the light filled with leds hence why it is 100 leds for each side of the brakes and 80 leds for the indicators, like it would be dots every where in the houseing type of thing yeah they are different but i dont think many people will wanna spend 300+ dollers for the wank factor. Ive have done the cheap alternative  and i like the look of em and they are fuken heaps brighter than the globes

Am I missing something? Seems like buying UL petrol and buying octane booster to turn it into premium. http://www.ledshoponline.com/automotive_leds1157.htm yeah they are the ones i got for my brakes. the hyperbright ones and i got the indicators custom made with the modified flasher can thingy I didn't see the superbright ones. They total 232,320mcd each bulb for $18 each ($36 on the site is for the pair) As opposed to 'Marmo aka GRNGOB' conversion with 200,000mcd (86% of the light output) for $300. Hmmmmm |

Hmmmmm but they still look like normol tailights not modded ones they still look like there is two "globes" by the two circile, mine would be thoe whole thing lit up and more in your face just due to the fact that there is more(it would appear brighter)

i have ahd an idea of using 5 and 10 mm leds for the stop tail, parts would cost about $130

why do those boards use a resistor for each led? surely it would be simpler just to bridge the leds together in parallel so they will run straight off 12 V??
Seems to be a complete waste of money

The park light is duller and when u brake the light isnt much brighter. Go to fordforums.com.au go to general tech and u will see a huge thread on these bulbs they turned out to be a failure. I got a heap of comparison pics over there tooo! |
