are LED's and regular lamps interchangeable or is there anything that must be done to allow for LED's to be used?

tripleGmax... one he doesnt have stock corner lights, two, I know you can use them in the corner lights, thats why they are called 1157 leds.....
.... my question was will white led's still have a yellow tint to them in the stock corner lights.

dont be a smarta$$, some people are dumber than you think

tripleGmax Mar 5, 2005 07:07 PM

well if i recall......stock corners are yellow and stock bulbs are white and they have a yellow tint. leds are bout the same brightness (maybe not as bright). so if you use stock corners then why would you think the tint wouldnt be yellow?

the tint guarantees a yellow.

Don't even bother with LED's in the rear. They'd kind of be pointless? The way our bulbs sit faced towards the side of the car instead of pointing straight out, you really wouldn't notice too much of a difference. You'll need two 1156's for the turn signals, two 1157's for the brakes, two 1156's for the reverse, two 194's for the rear corners. I think I got all of them, someone chime in if this is wrong?

Dont bother not even bothering about led's!! They make several differences: they consume less power, they light up quicker,they last longer, and if u buy the right ones, they will be brighter. Here's an EXCELLENT 1157 bulb for our tails.They are on ebay for $15 a pair w/ 2free single led red bulbhttp://memimage.cardomain.net/member...4_193_full.jpg

fatboyslim86440 Mar 6, 2005 01:49 PM

stock lenses are clear.. stock bulbs are clear (not white) but you still get a yellow lighting, LED's are much brighter then bulbs.

I'm thinking if I put (White) LED's in the corner lights it SHOULD light the entire corner part to light up white... unless the lenses will some how discolor it... ef this, I'm just going to blow 20 bucks and buy led's... this place (max org) is becoming to complicated..

people arent stupid ..... we just talk too much...
