How bright?! Just fitted these beauties as reverse lights to match my LED tail/brake:

Ebay, some bloke from Hong Kong. £6.99 a set plus postage. For some reason he sent me 2 packs, so the Vectra got some too!

 

[jesus]

link? how many LEDs is on each bulb?

 

[Blarno]

Don't have a link, just go to Ebay and search 'White LED bulbs', that's what I did. 24 LEDs per bulb.

Amber ones next for the indicators...

They look mint what are the quality of the bulbs like have you any pictures of the bulbs in the lights to see what they look like when not on how long they take to get to you what bulbs have yo got for your tail/brake lights

And breathe!

I bought the side/tail ones about 6 months ago and they've caused no problems. They took about a week to get here from Hong Kong. I will throw some pics up of them in situ later on. I'm very impressed with tem for the price.

 

[Blarno]

Edited, because I'm stupid.

Apologies for the crap quality, only had my cameraphone to hand:

Can't get a decent photo of the stop/tail, but it's exactly the same as the reverse bulb, albeit with clear red LEDs.

Can you please post a link to the actual AUCTION you bid on because there are a lot of different sellers and these actually seem like good quality.

These were the exact items I bid on, he seems to have quite a few for sale.

There nice and bright.

i had the stop/tail bulbs. put the regular fillament bulb back in though, as the leds are hard to see in bright day light. they dont really give off a glow like regular bulbs, and all you can see is a tiny red dot when breaking.

 

[Ash87]

they look cool.

I wouldn't use LEDs for this reason. The light is too directional so you need to be in the correct place to get a decent brightness. And you don't get any reflection of the reflectors making it a tiny dot. Useless IMHO.

Hmmm. Maybe a bit too far.

 

[J03]

ive got these on my car, had them ages and they look wicked!

 

[WeeGad]

Which one are the correct fitment for the Indicator leds??

 

[N!CK R]

Would be good to see a comparison from standard bulbs.
It is obvious they are different anyway.

 

[aucky]

I think il have to get some, mine arent very bright through smoked lights..

You'll need offset pin jobbies...
