LEDs in stock tailight?
anyone done this yet. sincve there arent any good led tailight to put on, has anyone used an LED bulb in the stock taillight. if you have, can you post pics. Also how many leds did you use and was it hard to fit the bigger bulb through the hole in the taillight. Is it worth it??? (REQUESTING PICS)

im glad to hear that they worked well. i am wondering why they broke so quickly cuz thats not usual for LEDS but again how many leds did you have on your bulb. i am worried about getting it through the hole in the taillight.

They need load resistors on the blinkers, otherwise they'll zap out.
