Hello folks,
A while back I got some LED rear end bulbs but they did not look any
brighter.

Less difference between stop and tail than with incandescents,
flickering,
<br>
not as bright or with the same spread as incandescent. With one
set if the
<br>
tail lights were on the brake lights didn't work. A second set
didn't have
<br>
that problem but if you had a short that blew the green circuit
fuse for the
<br>
stop lights it extinguished the tail lights even though they were
fused
<br>
separately, and the other lights on that circuit were glowing.

I've also tried LED headlights and they were also poor. Whiter to
be sure,
<br>
but with no additional illumination that I could see, and a 'dead'
area in
<br>
the middle of the pool of light. Basically all they do is change
the colour
<br>
temperature. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<br>
Strictly speaking external LED lighting is not legal in the UK
unless
<br>
E-marked (which none I've seen are), but more importantly checking
with my
<br>
insurance company they would not accept them.
<br>
<br>
And don't get me started on LED indicators/turn signals ...
