Default No one has made a reliable LED tail lamp yet and they are still working out issues with

rectifiers and fun stuff like that.

Default I did all rear tail lights in LED's. Turns, clearence and brake. Looks Awesome..more

You have to wire in a resistor to fool the bulb indicator. It goes by resistance. LED obviously take much less power. I have had no issues.
BTW: I did this in stock tail lights not those dumb Ebay craps lol. lol I see alot of those around my work , so hidious!!!!

Default I recommend getting 6000k. I have those in my bike. I got a good deal on the 8000k...

thats why I have them. They look sweet and are really blue but not as good as 6000k lights or even 4300k lights. I dont mind though. I have PIAA 1100X driving/fog lights that work really good too.

Sorry no pics as my personal computer just crashed and lost all my pics for now.
