There was some talk  a while back about replacing burned incandescent 
bulbs with halogen ones.  Many people wouldn't agree on if Halogen or 
incandescent draws more current.  This is important since we(or most
people on the list) have british cars with Locus electric.  While I
was going through some literatures on LEDs I spotted a company that 
makes LED clusters that are direct replacements for car incandescent bulbs.
This sound like a great idea, LEDs are more efficient, brighter, last
longer, draws less current and more durable than incandescent bulbs.

My question is, has anyone try these LED replacements before?  If someone
has, what are you opinions of them and where can one get them.  Enquiring 
minds wants to know.
